In number system:

  • It is very important to have a good knowledge of how to convert numbers from one base to another base.
  • Here, we will learn how to convert any given number from base 10 to base 2.

Using repeated division method.

To convert from base ten to base two: 

1. Divide the given base ten i.e. 55ten repeatedly by 2 (the base number we are converting to)
