Binary numbers are numbers that use only two digits: 0 and 1. They are used by computers and other electronic devices because they are easy to store and process. Decimal numbers are numbers that use ten digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. They are used by humans because they are familiar and convenient.
To convert a decimal number to a binary number, we need to follow these steps:
1. Divide the decimal number by 2.
2. Write down the remainder (in binary).
3. Divide the quotient by 2.
4. Write down the remainder again.
5. Repeat steps 3-4 until you get a quotient of zero.
6. The binary number is the sequence of remainders in reverse order.
For example, let's convert 13 to binary:
13 / 2 = 6 remainder 1
6 / 2 = 3 remainder 0
3 / 2 = 1 remainder 1
1 / 2 = 0 remainder 1
So the binary representation of 13 is 1101.
