Important Notes: (47)10 in Binary
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the base-10 number 47 into a binary number.
- The initial or first remainder while performing MOD-2 operation for 47 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The last remainder while performing MOD-2 operation for 47 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-2 operation for 47 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the binary equivalent for the given decimal number (47)10.
How-to: What is (47)10 in binary?
The below step-by-step solution shows how to convert (47)10 to its equivalent binary code or number. Arranging or writing the remainders from MSB to LSB of successive MOD-2 operation for decimal 47 forms the binary equivalent of 47.
Solved Example:What is the binary equivalent of 47?
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 47?
(47)10 = (?)2
step 2 Perform successive MOD-2 operation for decimal 47, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below:
Successive MOD-2 Operation for 47:
47 MOD-2 | 47 / 2 = 23 | Remainder is 1 → LSB |
23 MOD-2 | 23 / 2 = 11 | Remainder is 1 |
11 MOD-2 | 11 / 2 = 5 | Remainder is 1 |
5 MOD-2 | 5 / 2 = 2 | Remainder is 1 |
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 47 from MSB to LSB forms the binary equivalent for 47:
101111
4710 = 1011112
Therefore,
the binary equivalent of 47 is (101111)2
