How to Read Binary

In the previous post we have discussed about How Online Matrix Calculator and In today's session we are going to discuss about How to Read Binary. Decimal Numbers are the numbers which include 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 . We do all our mathematical processing in the form of decimal numbers. Binary numbers are the numbers which can be expressed in the form of 1 and 0 only. The data stored in the computers, calculators, chip is all in the form of digits and so it is in the form of binary codes.  These Binary numbers can be converted in the form of decimal numbers. Here we are going to learn about How To Read Binary.
Let us take the example of the binary number say 1 0 0 1. To convert the given binary number, we will start reading the data from the right hand side and place the numbers with base 2 and power 0 at the first place. The power goes on increasing by 1as we move from right to the left. SO the first digit will be 2 >0 = 1, followed by 2 >1 = 2, then we proceed as follows:
2>2 = 2 * 2 = 4
2>3 = 2 * 2 * 2  = 8
2> 4 = 2 * 2* 2 * 2  = 16
Thus the series appears as follows: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 , 32 . . . .. .. which will be written along with the binary digits starting by right as follows
 8      4        2       1
1       0        0       1
Now we write 1 * 8 +  4 * 0 + 2 * 0 + 1 *1 = 8 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 9, which is the decimal number. (know more about Binary, here)


To learn about the Algebraic Equations in details, we use the online math tutor, which makes the concept of algebraic equations easy to understand. It relates the chapter with the real life environment. West Bengal Board of Higher Secondary Education includes the topic of linear equation in grade 6 mathematics.
