Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If '100' in base-2 is equal to '4' in decimal, what is '110' in base-2?
  • Step 1: Understand that '110' is a number in base-2 (binary).
  • Step 2: Break down '110' into its individual digits: 1, 1, and 0.
  • Step 3: Assign each digit a power of 2 based on its position from right to left: the rightmost digit is 2^0, the next is 2^1, and the leftmost is 2^2.
  • Step 4: Calculate the value of each digit: the leftmost '1' is 1*2^2, the middle '1' is 1*2^1, and the '0' is 0*2^0.
  • Step 5: Perform the calculations: 1*2^2 = 4, 1*2^1 = 2, and 0*2^0 = 0.
  • Step 6: Add the results together: 4 + 2 + 0 = 6.
  • Step 7: Conclude that '110' in base-2 is equal to '6' in decimal.
