Conversion of 00110 binary number into decimal?

Answer 1

Normal decimal numbers are based on powers of 10. The individual digits are (from right to left):

ones (10^0),

tens (10^1),

hundreds (10^2),

etc.

So, 365 is really 5 ones, plus 6 tens, plus 3 hundreds. 5 + 60 + 300 = 365

Binary numbers are based on powers of two. The individual bits (Binary digITS) are:

ones (2^0),

twos (2^1),

fours (2^2),

eights (2^3),

etc.

So, your binary 00110 is really 0 ones, plus 1 twos, plus 1 fours. 0 + 2 + 4 = 6 your 00110 binary is equal to 6 decimal.
