1010 Decimal in Binary

Let's convert the decimal number 1010 to binary without using a calculator:

Step 1: Divide by 2

Start by dividing 1010 by 2:

1010 ÷ 2 = 505 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 2: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (505) by 2:

505 ÷ 2 = 252 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 3: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (252) by 2:

252 ÷ 2 = 126 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 4: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (126) by 2:

126 ÷ 2 = 63 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 5: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (63) by 2:

63 ÷ 2 = 31 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 6: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (31) by 2:

31 ÷ 2 = 15 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 7: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (15) by 2:

15 ÷ 2 = 7 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 8: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (7) by 2:

7 ÷ 2 = 3 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 9: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (3) by 2:

3 ÷ 2 = 1 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 10: Final actions

The Quotient is less than 2 (1), so we will transfer it to the beginning of the number as a reminder.

Step 11: Write the Remainders in Reverse Order

Now, write down the remainders obtained in reverse order:

1111110010

So, the binary representation of the decimal number 1010 is 1111110010.
