I want some explanation on number system
Conversion
Binary
Hexadecimal
Octal
Decimal......
Sry I wrote the chapter algebraic expressions because number system was not there....
Steps
Step 1 − Divide the decimal number to be converted by the value of the new base.
Step 2 − Get the remainder from Step 1 as the rightmost digit (least significant digit) of new base number.
Step 3 − Divide the quotient of the previous divide by the new base.
Step 4 − Record the remainder from Step 3 as the next digit (to the left) of the new base number.
Repeat Steps 3 and 4, getting remainders from right to left, until the quotient becomes zero in Step 3.
The last remainder thus obtained will be the Most Significant Digit (MSD) of the new base number.
Example −Decimal Number: 2910
Calculating Binary Equivalent −
Step Operation Result RemainderStep 1 | 29 / 2 | 14 | 1 |
Step 2 | 14 / 2 | 7 | 0 |
Step 3 | 7 / 2 | 3 | 1 |
Step 4 | 3 / 2 | 1 | 1 |
Step 5 | 1 / 2 | 0 | 1 |
As mentioned in Steps 2 and 4, the remainders have to be arranged in the reverse order so that the first remainder becomes the Least Significant Digit (LSD) and the last remainder becomes the Most Significant Digit (MSD).
Decimal Number − 2910 = Binary Number − 111012.
Other Base System to Decimal SystemSteps
Step 1 − Determine the column (positional) value of each digit (this depends on the position of the digit and the base of the number system).
Step 2 − Multiply the obtained column values (in Step 1) by the digits in the corresponding columns.
Step 3 − Sum the products calculated in Step 2. The total is the equivalent value in decimal.
Binary Number − 111012
Calculating Decimal Equivalent −
Step Binary Number Decimal NumberStep 1 | 111012 | ((1 × 24) + (1 × 23) + (1 × 22) + (0 × 21) + (1 × 20))10 |
Step 2 | 111012 | (16 + 8 + 4 + 0 + 1)10 |
Step 3 | 111012 | 2910 |
Binary Number − 111012 = Decimal Number − 2910
Other Base System to Non-Decimal SystemSteps
Step 1 − Convert the original number to a decimal number (base 10).
Step 2 − Convert the decimal number so obtained to the new base number.
Octal Number − 258
Calculating Binary Equivalent −
Step 1 − Convert to Decimal Step Octal Number Decimal NumberStep 1 | 258 | ((2 × 81) + (5 × 80))10 |
Step 2 | 258 | (16 + 5 )10 |
Step 3 | 258 | 2110 |
Octal Number − 258 = Decimal Number − 2110
Step 2 − Convert Decimal to Binary Step Operation Result RemainderStep 1 | 21 / 2 | 10 | 1 |
Step 2 | 10 / 2 | 5 | 0 |
Step 3 | 5 / 2 | 2 | 1 |
Step 4 | 2 / 2 | 1 | 0 |
Step 5 | 1 / 2 | 0 | 1 |
Decimal Number − 2110 = Binary Number − 101012
Octal Number − 258 = Binary Number − 101012
Shortcut method - Binary to OctalSteps
Step 1 − Divide the binary digits into groups of three (starting from the right).
Step 2 − Convert each group of three binary digits to one octal digit.
Binary Number − 101012
Calculating Octal Equivalent −
Step Binary Number Octal NumberStep 1 | 101012 | 010 101 |
Step 2 | 101012 | 28 58 |
Step 3 | 101012 | 258 |
Binary Number − 101012 = Octal Number − 258
Shortcut method - Octal to BinarySteps
Step 1 − Convert each octal digit to a 3 digit binary number (the octal digits may be treated as decimal for this conversion).
Step 2 − Combine all the resulting binary groups (of 3 digits each) into a single binary number.
