the importance of binary numbers in standard computing is basically everything.
computers only understand base 2, that is a 0 (off) and a 1 (on). every piece of data passed through any part of the computer is done so using base 2 (binary).
that said, there are theorised base 3 computers, called 'genetic computers' which use genes and magnetism to produce a base 3 process, but this was only done as a computer sciences project and is likely to not every be implemented in the mainstream.

Binary Numbers all a computer knows!
Main Memory and Registers of just about every computer are based on 64-bit or 32-bit binary integers.
The only numbers used in binary are 0 and 1
Nearly all computer math is based on variants of binary numbering. Printouts of computer memory data will combine the binary numbers into four bit groups called hexadecimal digits.
If there was no binary, there would be no computer.
Binary.
It is used to do all the computer coding!
there are four
A computer only understand binary, which is 0 as "off" and 1 as "on."
Binary numbers, with or without a computer are a series of 1's and 0's.

Because, a computer can only understand binary numbers(0s and 1s). Actually, they are represented internally as voltage levels, a positive voltage level to represent 1 and a 0V to represent 0, generally represented as ON and OFF. The voltage levels are dependent on the implementation so even a -5 can be interpretted by the computer as a 0 and +5 as 1,etc.
A computer works in binary, meaning that a computer interprets everything as simply 'on' or 'off', and recognizes two numbers: zero and one.
Binary Numbers all a computer knows!
Binary Numbers that can be added and subtracted.
Computers use binary numbers. This is ones and zeros.
