1. Write out the powers of 2 from 20 = 1 (in right to left order, ie ... 16 8 4 2 1) until you get a power greater than or equal to the number you wish to convert.
2. Put a one (1) under the highest power of 2 that is less than or equal to the number
3. Subtract that power from the number.
4. If the result of the subtraction is not zero, find the next power of 2 not greater than the result of the subtraction and repeat from step 3.
5. Put a zero (0) under all powers of 2 which have nothing under them.
6. The result (under the powers of 2) is the number in base 2.
Example to convert 948 base 10 to base 2:
Write out the powers of 2 until greater than or equal to 948:
Powers: 1024...512...256...128...64...32...16...8...4...2...1
First power less than or equal to 958 is 512:
Powers: 1024...512...256...128...64...32...16...8...4...2...1
Result:.....................1.......................................................................
948 - 512 = 436
Next power not greater than 436 is 256:
Powers: 1024...512...256...128...64...32...16...8...4...2...1
Result:.....................1........1..............................................................
436 - 256 = 180 → 128:
Powers: 1024...512...256...128...64...32...16...8...4...2...1
Result:.....................1........1.........1.................................................
180 - 128 = 52 → 32:
Powers: 1024...512...256...128...64...32...16...8...4...2...1
Result:.....................1........1.........1...............1...............................
52 - 32 = 20 → 16
Powers: 1024...512...256...128...64...32...16...8...4...2...1
Result:.....................1........1.........1...............1......1.......................
20 - 16 = 4 → 4:
Powers: 1024...512...256...128...64...32...16...8...4...2...1
Result:.....................1........1.........1..............1......1..........1...........
4 - 4 = 0, so fill in the zeros:
Powers: 1024...512...256...128...64...32...16...8...4...2...1
Result:.....................1........1.........1.......0.....1......1....0...1...0...0
Thus 95810 = 11 1011 01002
(If the powers are written out in ascending order (from left to right), reverse the final result.)

How do you Convert the 255 decimal to binary?
25510 = 111111112 To convert any number from one base to another, repeatedly divide by the target base, rounding down to each integer result, until the result is zero. Write down the remainders in reverse order, and you have the new representation. This works in the reverse order, such as going from base 2 to base 10. Just remember that the division is in the base, and per the rules, of the source base. In this case, you would be dividing by 10102, and getting remainders of 1012 (5), 1012 (5), and 102 (2).
