To write 42 in binary, we need to convert it from base 10 to base 2.
We can use the division-by-2 algorithm to convert 42 to binary:
Step 1: Divide 42 by 2 and write down the quotient and remainder. 42 ÷ 2 = 21 remainder 0 Write down the remainder (0).
Step 2: Divide 21 by 2 and write down the quotient and remainder. 21 ÷ 2 = 10 remainder 1 Write down the remainder (1).
Step 3: Divide 10 by 2 and write down the quotient and remainder. 10 ÷ 2 = 5 remainder 0 Write down the remainder (0).
Step 4: Divide 5 by 2 and write down the quotient and remainder. 5 ÷ 2 = 2 remainder 1 Write down the remainder (1).
Step 5: Divide 2 by 2 and write down the quotient and remainder. 2 ÷ 2 = 1 remainder 0 Write down the remainder (0).
Step 6: Divide 1 by 2 and write down the quotient and remainder. 1 ÷ 2 = 0 remainder 1 Write down the remainder (1).
Step 7: Write the remainders in reverse order. The remainders are 101010, so: 42 in binary = 101010
Therefore, 42 in binary is 101010.
