Binary coded decimal. Each decimal digit is represented by its binary equivalent.
In Cobol, they had a serious concern for memory size. So they came up with a method known as BCD (Binary Coded Decimal), where a decimal value was converted to binary to save space. Check this link out. It will break down the details.
BCD, which stands for Binary Coded Decimal. 4 bits are used to code each decimal digit. So we have 0000 for zero, up to 0111 for seven, then 1000 for eight and 1001 for nine. The others {ten through fifteen} are not used, as those numbers are formed from additional decimal digits. So if you wanted to form twelve, in BCD it is 0001 0010, for 12{base ten}
Decimal 11 = binary 1011
69 in decimal = 1000101 in binary.

Binary coded decimal (BCD) is easier to convert between displayed or printed form than is pure binary.

All I know is that when a number is negative, you convert the decimal into binary and if it is negative you put 1111 before the binary digits.
