Number System: Name - Nishika Swami Class - 7 B Roll No. 30

The document discusses different number systems used in computing including: 1) Decimal, which uses base 10 with digits 0-9 and place value. 2) Binary, which uses base 2 with digits 0-1 and place value increasing by powers of 2. 3) Octal, which uses base 8 with digits 0-7 and place value increasing by powers of 8. 4) Hexadecimal, which uses base 16 with digits 0-9 and A-F, and place value increasing by powers of 16.

NUMBER SYSTEM

NUMBER
SYSTEM
◦ The number system is a way to represent or express
numbers. You have heard of various types of number
systems such as the whole numbers and the real
numbers. But in the context of computers, we define
other types of number systems. They are:
• The decimal number system
• The binary number system
• The octal number system and
• The hexadecimal number system
Decimal System
◦ In this number system, the digits 0 to 9 represents numbers. As it
uses 10 digits to represent a number, it is also called the base 10
number system. Each digit has a value based on its position called
place value. The value of the position increases by 10 times as we
move from right to left in the number.
◦ For example, the value of 786 is
◦ = 7 x 102 + 8 x 101 + 6 x 100
◦ = 700 + 80 + 6
◦ The binary number system uses positional notation. But in this case,
each digit is multiplied by the appropriate power of two based on its
position.
◦ For example, (101101)2 in decimal is
◦ = 1 x 25 + 0 x 24 + 1 x 23 + 1 x 22 + 0 x 21 + 1 x 20
◦ = 1 x 32 + 0 x 16 + 1 x 8 + 1 x 4 + 0 x 2 + 1 x 1
◦ = 32 + 8 + 4 + 1

Binary
◦ = (45)10

◦ Units of measurement of dataA computer can understand only
the “on” and “off” state of a switch. These two states are represented
by 1 and 0. The combination of 1 and 0 form binary numbers. These
numbers represent various data. As two digits are used to represent
numbers, it is called a binary or base 2 number system.

◦ Machine language is binary. And so it is necessary to discuss how to


measure the data stored in a computer. Bit and Byte are the units to
measure data.
◦ This system uses digits 0 to 7 (i.e. 8 digits) to
represent a number and the numbers are as a

number ◦ For example, (24)8 in decimal is


◦ = 2×81+4×80

The Hexadecimal Number System

In this system, 16 digits used to represent


a given number. Thus it is also known as
the base 16 number system. Each digit
