Let's convert the decimal number 342 to binary without using a calculator:

Step 1: Divide by 2

Start by dividing 342 by 2:

342 ÷ 2 = 171 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 2: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (171) by 2:

171 ÷ 2 = 85 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 3: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (85) by 2:

85 ÷ 2 = 42 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 4: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (42) by 2:

42 ÷ 2 = 21 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 5: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (21) by 2:

21 ÷ 2 = 10 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 6: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (10) by 2:

10 ÷ 2 = 5 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 7: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (5) by 2:

5 ÷ 2 = 2 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 8: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (2) by 2:

2 ÷ 2 = 1 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 9: Final actions

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

Step 10: Write the Remainders in Reverse Order

Now, write down the remainders obtained in reverse order:
