Number System Conversions

The document discusses various number systems including decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal. Decimal uses base 10 with digits 0-9. Binary uses base 2 with digits 0 and 1. Octal uses base 8 with digits 0-7. Hexadecimal uses base 16 with digits 0-9 and A-F. Conversion between number systems can be done using methods like repeated division, multiplication, and grouping digits.

Number System conversions

Number Systems
The system used to count discrete units is called number system. There are four systems of arithmetic which are often used in digital electronics.
Decimal Number System Binary Number System Octal Number System Hexa Decimal System

Decimal Number system


Decimal number system contains 10 digits: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9; and that is why its base or radix is 10.
Here radix means total number of digits used in any system.

To indicate digits greater than 9 (nine) we shall use the sum of these digits times power of 10.

Fractional DECIMAL SYSTEM


Decimal System The decimal system is composed of 10 numerals or symbols. These 10 symbols are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9; using these symbols as digits of a number, we can express any quantity. The decimal system, also called the base10 system because it has 10 digits.
1 104 103 102 101 100 10 102 103 104 105

Decimal Number System


The decimal number system is a positional

number system.
Example:

5 6 2 1
103 102 101 100

1 X 100 2 X 101 6 X 102 5 X 103

= 1 = 20 = 600 = 5000

Binary Number System


The binary number system is also a positional numbering system. Instead of using ten digits, 0 - 9, the binary system uses only two digits, 0 and 1.

Binary Number System


The binary number system is also known as

base 2. The values of the positions are calculated by taking 2 to some power.
Why is the base 2 for binary numbers?
o

Because we use 2 digits, the digits 0 and 1.

Fractional BINARY SYSTEM


In the binary system, there are only two symbols or possible digit values, 0 and 1. This base-2 system can be used to represent any quantity that can be represented in decimal or other number system.
24 23 22 21 20 21 22 23
24 25

In digital systems the information that is being processed is usually presented in binary form. Binary quantities can be represented by any device that has only two operating states or possible conditions. Eg. a switch has only open or closed. We arbitrarily (as we define them) let an open switch represent binary 0 and a closed switch represent binary 1. Thus we can represent any binary number by using series of switches.

Octal Number System


Also known as the Base 8 System Uses digits 0 - 7 Readily converts to binary Groups of three (binary) digits can be used to represent each octal digit Also uses multiplication and division algorithms for conversion to and from base 10

Fractional OCTAL NUMBER SYSTEM


The octal number system has a base of eight, meaning that it has eight possible digits: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7.
84 83 82 81 80 81 82 83 84 85

Use to represent long binary numbers in computers and microprocessors.

Hexadecimal Number System


Base 16 system Uses digits 0-9 & letters A,B,C,D,E,F Groups of four bits represent each base 16 digit

Fractional HEXADECIMAL NUMBER SYSTEM


The hexadecimal system uses base 16. Thus, it has 16 possible digit symbols. It uses the digits 0 through 9 plus the letters A, B, C, D, E, and F as the 16 digit symbols.
164 163 162 161 160 161 162 163 164 165

Use to represent long binary numbers in computers and microprocessors. These digits can use to program machine language.

Converting From Decimal to Binary


Make a list of the binary place values up to the number being

converted. Perform successive divisions by 2, placing the remainder of 0 or 1 in each of the positions from right to left. Continue until the quotient is zero. Example: 4210
25 24 23 22 21 20 32 16 8 4 2 1 1 0 1 0 1 0

DECIMAL TO BINARY CONVERTION


There are two methods to convert it:-

i. Revese of Binary-To-Digital Method Decimal number write as the sum of square


0 & 1 is write on the byte Example 1: Convert 4510 to the binary value Solve = 45 10 = 32 + 8 + 4 + 1 = 25 0 2 3 2 2 0 2 0
=

12

ii. Repeat division method The numbers is divide by 2. Balance for the question is written until the last answer.

Example : convert 2510 to binary


Solve = 2510 = ?2 = 25 2

12 balance 1

LSB

= 12 6 balance 0 2 = 6 3 balance 0 2 3 = 2 1 balance 1 = 1 0 balance 1 2 ... Answer = 110012

Decimal to Binary Conversion


The easiest way to convert a decimal number to its binary equivalent is to use the Division Algorithm This method repeatedly divides a decimal number by 2 and records the quotient and remainder
The remainder digits (a sequence of zeros and ones) form the binary equivalent in least significant to most significant digit sequence

Division Algorithm
Convert 67 to its binary equivalent:
6710 = x2
Step 1: 67 / 2 = 33 R 1 Step 2: 33 / 2 = 16 R 1 Step 3: 16 / 2 = 8 R 0 Step 4: 8 / 2 = 4 R 0 Step 5: 4 / 2 = 2 R 0 Step 6: 2 / 2 = 1 R 0 Step 7: 1 / 2 = 0 R 1 Divide 67 by 2. Record quotient in next row Again divide by 2; record quotient in next row Repeat again Repeat again Repeat again Repeat again STOP when quotient equals 0
