Important Notes: (32)10 in Binary
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the base-10 number 32 into a binary number.
- The initial or first remainder while performing MOD-2 operation for 32 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The last remainder while performing MOD-2 operation for 32 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-2 operation for 32 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the binary equivalent for the given decimal number (32)10.
How-to: What is (32)10 in binary?
The below step-by-step solution shows how to convert (32)10 to its equivalent binary code or number. Arranging or writing the remainders from MSB to LSB of successive MOD-2 operation for decimal 32 forms the binary equivalent of 32.
Solved Example:What is the binary equivalent of 32?
step 1 Observe the input parameters, values and what to be found:
Input values:
Decimal Number = (41)10
what to be found:
Which binary value is equal to the decimal number 32?
(32)10 = (?)2
step 2 Perform successive MOD-2 operation for decimal 32, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below:
Successive MOD-2 Operation for 32:
32 MOD-2 | 32 / 2 = 16 | Remainder is 0 → LSB |
16 MOD-2 | 16 / 2 = 8 | Remainder is 0 |
8 MOD-2 | 8 / 2 = 4 | Remainder is 0 |
4 MOD-2 | 4 / 2 = 2 | Remainder is 0 |
2 MOD-2 | 2 / 2 = 1 | Remainder is 0 |
1 MOD-2 | 1 / 2 = 0 | Remainder is 1 → MSB |
step 3 Write the remainders of MOD-2 operation for 32 from MSB to LSB forms the binary equivalent for 32:
100000
3210 = 1000002
Therefore,
the binary equivalent of 32 is (100000)2
