Decimal 482 in binary conversion provides the detailed information on what is the binary equivalent of (482)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 482 to its binary (base-2) equivalent.
(482)10 in binary is equal to:
(482)10 = (?)2
Perform successive MOD-2 operation for decimal 482, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
482 MOD-2 | 482 / 2 = 241 | Remainder is 0 → LSB |
241 MOD-2 | 241 / 2 = 120 | Remainder is 1 |
120 MOD-2 | 120 / 2 = 60 | Remainder is 0 |
60 MOD-2 | 60 / 2 = 30 | Remainder is 0 |
30 MOD-2 | 30 / 2 = 15 | Remainder is 0 |
15 MOD-2 | 15 / 2 = 7 | Remainder is 1 |
7 MOD-2 | 7 / 2 = 3 | Remainder is 1 |
3 MOD-2 | 3 / 2 = 1 | Remainder is 1 |
1 MOD-2 | 1 / 2 = 0 | Remainder is 1 → MSB |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the binary equivalent of 482.
48210 = 1111000102
Hence,
482 in binary is 111100010
where,
