- Computers operate in binary, meaning they store data and perform calculations using only zeros and ones.
- A single binary digit can only represent True (1) or False (0) in Boolean logic.
- Computers use the binary number system to manipulate and store all of their data including numbers, words, videos, graphics, and music.

Step2- Again divide the integer quotient by 2 and write integer value of quotient (ignore the decimal part). Repeat steps till quotient will be 1.
Ex. (23)10=(?)2
Note-Write 1(ON) for odd numbers and 0 (Off) for even numbers.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”15461″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Thus, the binary value of (23)10 = (10111)2[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
