Convert 1579 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 >= 1579

20 = 1

21 = 2

22 = 4

23 = 8

24 = 16

25 = 32

26 = 64

27 = 128

28 = 256

29 = 512

210 = 1024

211 = 2048 <--- Stop: This is greater than 1579

Since 2048 is greater than 1579, we use 1 power less as our starting point which equals 10

Build binary notation

Work backwards from a power of 10

We start with a total sum of 0:

210 = 1024

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 1024 = 1024

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
0 + 1024 = 1024

This is <= 1579, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 1024

Our binary notation is now equal to 1

29 = 512

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 512 = 512

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1024 + 512 = 1536

This is <= 1579, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 1536

Our binary notation is now equal to 11

28 = 256

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 256 = 256

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1536 + 256 = 1792

This is > 1579, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 1536

Our binary notation is now equal to 110

27 = 128

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1536 + 128 = 1664

This is > 1579, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 1536

Our binary notation is now equal to 1100

26 = 64

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1536 + 64 = 1600

This is > 1579, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 1536

Our binary notation is now equal to 11000

25 = 32

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1536 + 32 = 1568

This is <= 1579, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 1568

Our binary notation is now equal to 110001

24 = 16

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1568 + 16 = 1584

This is > 1579, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 1568

Our binary notation is now equal to 1100010

23 = 8

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1568 + 8 = 1576

This is <= 1579, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 1576

Our binary notation is now equal to 11000101

22 = 4

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1576 + 4 = 1580

This is > 1579, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 1576

Our binary notation is now equal to 110001010

21 = 2

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1576 + 2 = 1578

This is <= 1579, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 1578

Our binary notation is now equal to 1100010101

20 = 1

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 1579 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
1578 + 1 = 1579

This = 1579, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 1579

Our binary notation is now equal to 11000101011
