Decimal 722 in binary conversion provides the detailed information on what is the binary equivalent of (722)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 722 to its binary (base-2) equivalent.
(722)10 in binary is equal to:
(722)10 = (?)2
Perform successive MOD-2 operation for decimal 722, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
722 MOD-2 | 722 / 2 = 361 | Remainder is 0 → LSB |
361 MOD-2 | 361 / 2 = 180 | Remainder is 1 |
180 MOD-2 | 180 / 2 = 90 | Remainder is 0 |
90 MOD-2 | 90 / 2 = 45 | Remainder is 0 |
45 MOD-2 | 45 / 2 = 22 | Remainder is 1 |
22 MOD-2 | 22 / 2 = 11 | Remainder is 0 |
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 |
Arrange the remainders from MSB to LSB forms the binary equivalent of 722.
72210 = 10110100102
Hence,
722 in binary is 1011010010
where,
