What is 20 in binary?
The number 20 in binary is 10100
How was the octal number system invented?
It was invented just like any other base system that uses place value columns: Each place value column is eight times bigger than the place value column to its right. There is no reason to use the base 10 system other than we normally have 2 thumbs and 8 fingers giving 10 digits on our hands. In fact the Babylonians used sexagesimal (base 60) numbers; their legacy can be seen in the degrees in a circle and in our measurement of time: the colon used to separate the digits of a 24 hour time in the format "hh:mm:ss" are separators of sexagesimal digits that are represented by the base 10 numbers 0-59 - times are just the number of seconds since midnight expressed as a sexagesimal number. Some cultures have used a base 20 number system. When it comes to digital computers, they tend to use binary numbers as each location of memory can store one of two states: 0 or 1; these are binary-digits or bits (for short). The bits are then grouped together: 4 bits make 1 nybble 2 nybbles = 8 bits = 1 byte. We're used to decimal numbers so 1 byte can store the binary numbers 0 - 1111 1111 = 0-255 (in decimal). Two bytes allow storage of 0 - 1111 1111 1111 1111 = 0-65535 (in decimal). This conversion from binary to decimal is not very easy; to overcome this Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) can be used. BCD only uses the binary patterns of decimal numbers, ie 0-9 = 0000-1001, thus a byte can now store two decimal digits 0-99 (but this is very wasteful). A much more useful representation of numbers in a digital computer is to use numbers with a base that is a power of 2 - that way every binary pattern is used. One such system is hexadecimal or base 16. In this case each digit of a number is a number in the range 0-15 in decimal; to make each digit occupy a single character, the letters a-f (in either lower case or upper case a A-F) are used for 10-15, so that each hexadecimal digit is 0-f. 15 (0xf) is represented in binary as 1111 - 4 bits or 1 nybble. This means that each hexadecimal digit is exactly half a byte, and so two hexadecimal digits represent a byte exactly; this makes writing numbers extremely efficient and easy to convert to binary. This ability to easily convert hexadecimal numbers to binary is useful for computer programmers as they will often use blocks of bits as flags. For example file permissions under *nix are a grouping of 3 bits: Read/Write/eXecute for different users. These permissions can be written easily into hexadecimal (for example 0x1ed) but it is not very obvious what the permissions are; however as there are three in each group it is better to use base 2³ = 8 numbers, or octal numbers. In octal each digit can contain the digits 0-7 (which avoids the need to create symbols for digits after the decimal digit 9). In the previous example of permissions 0x1ed (hexadecimal) = 0755 (octal) which is easily converted into the permissions rwxr-xr-x and the user know instantly what it means. Octal was not invented specifically as a number system; it just exists as one as a consequence of the invention of the place value system. However, the grouping of bits in digital computers makes it useful for some applications there.

What is the value of pi to 20 or more?
In binary: 11.00100100001111110110 In Decimal: 3.14159265358979323846 In hexadecimal: 3.243F6A8885A308D31319
What is the decimal equivalent of binary number 11111?
31.... Why? 24 + 23 + 22 + 21 + 20 = 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 31 or 25 - 1 = 31 ------------------------------------------------------------------- You can calculate the decimal equivalent of any binary number by adding the powers of two that correspond to each place that a binary digit '1' is in. With decimal numbers, as you move left one digit, from the rightmost digit, you multiply that digit's value by 10. In binary, you multiply that place value by 2. For any eight bit binary number (or less) here are the multiples of 2. We always start with (n-1) for the leftmost exponent, because you have to remember that the rightmost exponent is always 0. 27 + 26 + 25 + 24 + 23 + 22 + 21 + 20 which correspond with the following decimal numbers: 128 + 64 + 32 + 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 All you have to do is add the decimal numbers that correspond with the each binary digit 1 is in. ie. 10000000 (binary) = 128 11000000 (binary) = 128 + 64 = 192 FYI here are the decimal equivalents for four bit binary numbers: 0000 = 0 0001 = 1 0010 = 2 0011 = 3 0100 = 4 0101 = 5 0110 = 6 0111 = 7 1000 = 8 1001 = 9 1010 = 10 = a (in hexadecimal) 1011 = 11 = b (in hexadecimal) 1100 = 12 = c (in hexadecimal) 1101 = 13 = d (in hexadecimal) 1110 = 14 = e (in hexadecimal) 1111 = 15 = f (in hexadecimal)
What is a A counting base of 10?
A counting base of ten is the system of counting we are most accustomed to. Numbers 0-9, 10-19, 20-29, etc.other common counting bases include 2 and 16(Binary and hexadecimal respectively).
What follows 19 in hexadecimal?
19 in hexadecimal is 25 in decimal. 20 follows it and is 26 in hexadecimal.19 in decimal is 13 in hexadecimal. 20 in decimal is 14 in hexadecimal.
What is the binary number 00100000 in hexidecimal stand for?
You need to separate the binary number into groups of 4 binary digit (starting from the right); then you look up each group in a conversion table. In this case, the separation is:0010 0000 So in hexadecimal, that would be: 20
If binary is base 2 maths what is base 8 maths and base 16 maths called?
Base 8 is known as octal and base 16 is hexadecimal.. In octal, 0 to 7 are used, so if we counted to 20, the progression would be as follows: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,20,21,22,23,24 In hexadecimal, the numbers 0-9 are used and the letters A-F are used. Counting to 20 would be as follows: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F,10,11,12,13,14
How do you convert binary decimal values into hexadecimal value?
"Binary decimal" is a contradiction in terms. Decimal has a base of 10, binary a base of 2 and hexadecimal a base of 16.The way I would do it is:If you have a value in binary then convert this to a decimal value. Then convert it to hexadecimal remembering that the number will now be comprised by the following (where x represents the digit):The first digit (from right to left) will equal x * 160, the next will equal x * 161 and so forth...An example:So in binary 11111 = (1 * 20) + (1 * 21) + (1 * 22) + (1 * 23) + (1 * 24) = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 = 31 (in decimal).To write this in hexadecimal, 31 would be (15 * 160) + (1 * 161) = 1FNote: A tip - If you are using a Windows operating system, then if you go to the Start menu and choose search/run and type in "calc" or "calculator" then you will get a virtual calculator to use. If you choose "programmer" from the View menu and then choose the "Bin" button and type in a binary value and then choose the "Hex" button then the binary value will be converted to hexadecimal. (The above certainly applies for Windows 7).
What are the 20 uses of binary numbers in maths?
A Binary Number is made up of only 0s and 1s. 110100 Example of a Binary Number There is no 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 in Binary! A "bit" is a single binary digit. The number above has 6 bits. Binary numbers have many uses in mathematics and beyond.
How does ten equal two?
5 multiplied by 2 is 10Answer:Consider the joke: There are 10 kinds of people in the world those who understand binary and those that don't.Binary uses powers of 2 to express numbers. Thus 20=1,21=2, 22=4 and so on (numbers shown in decimal). This is expressed as strings of numbers using either 0 or 1. Thus 0(binary) =0 (deciamal). 1(Binary)=1 (decimal) or 20, 10(binary)=2(decimal) or 21, 11=3 (decimal) =10+1(binary) = 21+20 and so on.
