Binary bits are necessary to represent 748 different numbers in the sense that binary bits are represented in digital wave form. Binary bits also have an exponent of one.
31 - it's binary equivalent is 11111
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...
24 = 16
At least 8 bits are needed to represent the number 231. 231 ÷ 2 = 115 r 1 115 ÷ 2 = 57 r 1 57 ÷ 2 = 28 r 1 28 ÷ 2 = 14 r 0 14 ÷ 2 = 7 r 0 7 ÷ 2 = 3 r 1 3 ÷ 2 = 1 r 1 1 ÷ 2 = 0 r 1 → 231 is 1110 0111 in binary and has 8 binary digits. Thus 231 can be represented in 8 bits, but if more are provided, eg 16, it can still be represented (in 16 bits it would be 0000 0000 1110 0111, unless there is a binary point, with say 8 bits after it, then 231 would be 1110 0111 . 0000 0000).

Binary is easier for the computer to understand. It is also easier to handle and is not costly.

23 can be represented in binary as 10111 and would therefore require 5 bits to represent.
16 Mb in binary notation can be refered to as 16*1024 bits. A bit is represented with a lower case "b".

All code and data in a computer system is represented in binary. Characters are represented in a few different ways depending on the language. For the English language, the ASCII character set is perhaps the most common. Using this character set, normally each character is represented by 1 byte (8 bits (8 binary digits)). As an example, a value of 65 is used for A which in binary is 01000001.

1000
4 bits
No. 1 byte = 8 bits. 5000 is represented as 110101110000110000. As the no. of binary digits is more then 8, so 500 cannot be represented in a byte.
11b which is 1*2 + 1*1 = 3 would be for two bits. But a byte is 8 bits, so 2 bytes is 16 bits. The largest binary number is [2^16 - 1], which is 65535 (base ten)
