Decimal 82 in binary conversion provides the detailed information on what is the binary equivalent of (82)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 82 to its binary (base-2) equivalent.
(82)10 in binary is equal to:
(82)10 = (?)2
Perform successive MOD-2 operation for decimal 82, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
82 MOD-2 | 82 / 2 = 41 | Remainder is 0 → LSB |
41 MOD-2 | 41 / 2 = 20 | Remainder is 1 |
20 MOD-2 | 20 / 2 = 10 | Remainder is 0 |
10 MOD-2 | 10 / 2 = 5 | Remainder is 0 |
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 82.
8210 = 10100102
Hence,
82 in binary is 1010010
where,
