What is Binary Number?
A binary number is a number expressed in the base-2 numeral system (binary numeral system). Binary numbers are represented by only two symbols or digits, i.e. 0 (zero) and 1(one)

Binary Arithmetic Operations – Add, Subtract, Multiply and Divide
Addition
0 + 0 = 0
0 + 1 = 1
1 + 0 = 1
1 + 1 = 0 carry 1 to the next column
When the result of an addition of digits exceeds the maximum permissible values then you have to carry the excess amount divided by the radix to the digit on left, so that it can be added to the next place value.
1 + 1 = 0 , 2/2 =1 and the remainder is 0; so 1 will be carried digit
Subtraction
0 – 0 = 0
0 – 1 = 1 borrow 1 to the next column
1 – 0 = 1
1 – 1 = 0
Conversion to and from other Numeral Systems
Binary to Decimal Conversion
Refer to our Number Base Converter to know about conversion from Decimal to Binary. Binary to Decimal conversion (from base 2 to Base 10) is simply inverse of the Decimal to Binary conversion process.
Multiply the digits (bits) of the binary number starting with the least significant (rightmost) bit with 2n and then add all of them. Here n is the position of the digit starting from the right assuming the position of the rightmost digit as 0.
Converting 11110 from Base 2 to Decimal
1 * 24 + 1 * 23 + 1 * 22 + 1 * 21 + 0 * 20 = 30 in Decimal
Binary to Hexadecimal Conversion
Binary can be converted to hexadecimal by converting Binary to Decimal and then converting the Decimal number to Hexadecimal.
As Hexadecimal base 16 is power of 2, binary can also be converted directly to hexadecimal.
To convert a binary number to hexadecimal, divide the binary in groups of 4 bits starting from left.
1111002 = 0011 1100 = 3C16
Refer to our Hexadecimal Base Calculator and Conversion to know about conversion from Hexadecimal to Binary.
Binary to Octal Conversion
Binary can be converted to Octal by converting Binary to Decimal and then converting the Decimal number to Octal.
As Octal base 16 is power of 2, binary can also be converted directly to Octal.
To convert a binary number to Octal, divide the binary in groups of 3 bits starting from left.
1111002 = 111 100 = 748
Refer to our Octal Base Calculator and Conversion to know about conversion from Octal to Binary.
