What is the decimal number that is the same as binary 1010?

Ten.


Why does a decimal value waste memory space?

Decimal (more formally, binary coded decimal) values store numeric information as digits encoded using the four bit binary equivalents: 0 (0000) to 9 (1001). That means a single byte can hold values between 0 and 99. But simply using the same byte to hold a binary value will yield values between 0 and 255 (or –128 and +127).


What is the same thing as 10101010?

The binary number 10101010 is equivalent, in decimal representation, to 128 + 32 + 8 + 2 = 170. But this answer assumes that the given number is binary - an assumption for which there is no real justification. Besides, the relationship is an equivalence, which is not quite "the same thing".


Explain clearly the function of the DAA instruction in an 8085A microprocessor system?

DAA (Decimal Adjust for Addition) is used following a normal ADD, when it is known that the input data represented BCD (Binary Coded Decimal). It compensates for the half byte carry that might occur because the BCD format is not the same as the binary format.

What does hexadecimal base 16 convert binary equal?

16 is the 4th power of 2. So a hexadecimal number is converted to binary by replacing each hex digit by the 4-bit binary number having the same value. Conversely, in converting binary to hexadecimal, we group every 4 bits starting at the decimal (binary?) point and replace it with the equivalent hex digit. For example, the hexadecimal number 3F9 in binary is 1111111001, because 3 in binary is 11, F (decimal 15) is 1111, and 9 is 1001.


Are binary tree and binary tree same?

Yes.


Why are these octal codes used instead of decimal system?

Octal codes are often used to write the numerical value of a binary number because it is easier to convert from binary to octal, instead of binary to decimal. You can convert to octal on sight, and it simply requires grouping the binary bits into groups of three, whereas converting to decimal requires repeated division by 10102 or 1010. Actually, grouping into three bits is the same as dividing by 1002 or 810 so the process is really the same. Divide by 8 to get octal. Divide by 10 to get decimal.


How can I know if a binary number is divisible by another binary number?

The same as in decimal. You divide one number by the other, and if you get a whole number as a result (or if you get no remainder, depending on how you do the division), it is divisible. Note that you might also convert both numbers to decimal, and do the division in decimal.
