Example of Binary Notation
The number written in decimal notation as $68$ is expressed in binary notation as $1000100_2$.
Proof
| \(\ds 68\) | \(=\) | \(\ds 1 \times 2^6 + 0 \times 2^5 + 0 \times 2^4 + 0 \times 2^3 + 1 \times 2^2 + 0 \times 2^1 + 0 \times 2^0\) | ||||||||||||
| \(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds 64 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 4 + 0 + 0\) | ||||||||||||
| \(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds 1000100_2\) |
$\blacksquare$
