Understanding the Binary Number

System and Conversions


• An Introduction to Binary Numbers
What is a Number System?
• Definition: A method to represent numbers
using a consistent set of symbols.
• Common number systems: Decimal (Base 10),
Binary (Base 2), Octal (Base 8), Hexadecimal
(Base 16).
What is the Binary Number
System?
• Definition: A number system that uses only
two digits, 0 and 1.
• Base: 2
• Common usage: Computers and digital
systems.
Binary vs. Decimal
• Decimal (Base 10): Digits range from 0-9.
• Binary (Base 2): Digits range from 0-1.
• Example: Decimal 5 is Binary 101.
• Example: Decimal 10 is Binary 1010.
How to Represent Binary Numbers
• Each position in a binary number represents a
power of 2.
• Example: 1101₂ = 1×2³ + 1×2² + 0×2¹ + 1×2⁰ = 8
+ 4 + 0 + 1 = 13₁₀.
Converting Decimal to Binary
• Method: Division by 2, keeping track of
remainders.
• Steps:
• 1. Divide the decimal number by 2.
• 2. Record the remainder.
• 3. Divide the quotient by 2.
• 4. Repeat until the quotient is 0.
• 5. The binary number is the remainders read
in reverse order.
Converting Binary to Decimal
• Method: Summing the products of each binary
digit and its corresponding power of 2.
• Example: Convert 1101₂ to decimal.
• Calculation: 1×2³ + 1×2² + 0×2¹ + 1×2⁰ = 8 + 4 +
0 + 1 = 13₁₀.
Binary Arithmetic
• Basic operations: Addition, Subtraction,
Multiplication, Division.
• Example: Binary addition.
• 101₁₀ + 011₁₀
• Steps and rules (1+1=10, 1+0=1, 0+0=0, carry
over 1).
Applications of Binary Numbers
• Digital electronics: Computers,
Microprocessors.
• Binary coding: ASCII, Unicode.
• Networking: IP addresses, Subnetting.
Practice Problems
• Convert 19₁₀ to binary.
• Convert 10101₂ to decimal.
• Perform binary addition: 1101₂ + 101₁₀.
Summary
• Recap of the binary number system.
• Importance of binary in digital technology.
• Key points on conversion methods.
