With 6 binary digits, you have 26 different possibilities. This is because there are two possibilities for each digit, and each digit is independent of the other digits - so you just multiply the possibilities for each digit together.

The different digits have different values.
A binary system is called a base-2 system because it uses only two digits, 0 and 1, to represent all possible values. In contrast to decimal (base-10), which uses ten digits (0-9), the binary system relies on the powers of two for its positional values. Each position in a binary number represents a power of 2, allowing for the representation of larger numbers through combinations of these two digits. This simplicity makes binary particularly suited for computer systems and digital electronics.
In base 2, also known as binary, the only two digits used are 0 and 1. These digits represent all values in the binary system, with 0 indicating off or false and 1 indicating on or true. Any number in base 2 is expressed as combinations of these two digits.
To represent the name "Sam" in binary code, you need to convert each letter to its ASCII value and then to binary. The ASCII values for 'S', 'a', and 'm' are 83, 97, and 109, respectively. In binary, these values are represented as: 'S' = 01010011, 'a' = 01100001, and 'm' = 01101101. Therefore, "Sam" in binary code is 01010011 01100001 01101101.

24, or 16 (0 through 15) One binary digit (bit) can have 21 values (0 or 1). Two bits can have 22 values. Three bits can have 23 values. A five-bit number can have 25 values... and so on...

These digits can be represented based on their Place Value Notation.
In a computer data is represented as a series of usually binary digits. In the binary system the only numbers/values used are 0 and 1.
The different digits have different values.
Because a 2-digit hex number can represent up to 256 values (including zero) - whereas the binary equivalent would require 8 binary digits (bits).. This saves space on paper.
It is a system of representing numbers using only the digits 0 and 1, and in which the place values of digits are powers of 2.
1. A single bit can represent two different values, 0 and 1. Then simply take the largest of those two possible values, 1, and that's your answer.
Advantage of binary over decimal: information can be recorded and stored in any dichotomous variable: magnetised or not magnetised (most electronic media), pit or no pit (optoelectronic media CDs/DVDs). For decimal it would be necessary to store as 10 different levels of magnetisation or depths of pits. Not so easy to make such a system error-free. Advantage of decimal over binary: fewer "digits" required. Every ten binary digits (1024 values) can be replaced by just a shade more than three decimal digits (1000 values). So the number of digits to be stored is less than a third.
