Decimal 96 in binary conversion provides the detailed information on what is the binary equivalent of (96)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 96 to its binary (base-2) equivalent.
(96)10 in binary is equal to:
(96)10 = (?)2
Perform successive MOD-2 operation for decimal 96, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.
96 MOD-2 | 96 / 2 = 48 | Remainder is 0 → LSB |
48 MOD-2 | 48 / 2 = 24 | Remainder is 0 |
24 MOD-2 | 24 / 2 = 12 | Remainder is 0 |
12 MOD-2 | 12 / 2 = 6 | Remainder is 0 |
6 MOD-2 | 6 / 2 = 3 | Remainder is 0 |
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 96.
9610 = 11000002
Hence,
96 in binary is 1100000
where,
96
10 is the given decimal number,
10 in 96
10 represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
1100000
2 is the binary equivalent of the decimal 41,
2 in 1100000
2 represents the base-2 or binary number system.
Important Notes: (96)10 in Binary
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the base-10 number 96 into a binary number.
- The initial or first remainder while performing MOD-2 operation for 96 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
- The last remainder while performing MOD-2 operation for 96 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
- The remainders of MOD-2 operation for 96 should be written from MSB to LSB to form the binary equivalent for the given decimal number (96)10.
