Convert 154 from decimal to binary

(base 2) notation:

Power Test

Raise our base of 2 to a power

Start at 0 and increasing by 1 until it is >= 154

20 = 1

21 = 2

22 = 4

23 = 8

24 = 16

25 = 32

26 = 64

27 = 128

28 = 256 <--- Stop: This is greater than 154

Since 256 is greater than 154, we use 1 power less as our starting point which equals 7

Build binary notation

Work backwards from a power of 7

We start with a total sum of 0:

27 = 128

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 154 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 128 = 128

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
0 + 128 = 128

This is <= 154, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 128

Our binary notation is now equal to 1

26 = 64

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 154 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 64 = 64

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
128 + 64 = 192

This is > 154, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 128

Our binary notation is now equal to 10

25 = 32

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 154 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 32 = 32

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
128 + 32 = 160

This is > 154, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 128

Our binary notation is now equal to 100

24 = 16

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 154 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 16 = 16

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
128 + 16 = 144

This is <= 154, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 144

Our binary notation is now equal to 1001

23 = 8

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 154 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 8 = 8

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
144 + 8 = 152

This is <= 154, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 152

Our binary notation is now equal to 10011

22 = 4

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 154 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 4 = 4

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
152 + 4 = 156

This is > 154, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 152

Our binary notation is now equal to 100110

21 = 2

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 154 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 2 = 2

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
152 + 2 = 154

This = 154, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 154

Our binary notation is now equal to 1001101

20 = 1

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 154 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 1 = 1

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
154 + 1 = 155

This is > 154, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 154

Our binary notation is now equal to 10011010

Final Answer

We are done. 154 converted from decimal to binary notation equals 100110102.
