a lesson from my class that took 4 and half hours and it only took you a few minutes, the best part it is that i learned it from you and not from my prof
Thank you Abigail! This is crazy useful. I looked at other ways to solve conversions, and they were weirdly difficult. You made it look almost too easy!
thank you for this, it really helped me alot. its hard to understand all this while a professor wants you to write it down off a projector and then try to concentrate at the same time.
For those of you who tried larger numbers and got all ones. Here is what she forgot to mention. If the number you are converting is larger than the next power of two in the series then you must include that number (the power of two) into your table. ex. -> # 514 2^0, 2^1, 2^3, 2^4, 2^5, 2^6, 2^7, 2^8, 2^9 which is -> 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 In fact for good measure throw in another power of 2, 2^10 = 1024. Another thought left out the binary number 010001000 is still 514. Hope this helps, next time, don't freak out!! Figure it out!
skoprivlenski I am not sure what you mean. Maybe give a more detailed explanation of your problem and I might be able to help. With a few tweaks to her method you should be able to convert any decimal number into a binary number.
The word Abigail wants is addends. A Mathematics student says, "using the greatest possible addends of series: '1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128' which addends equal 54?"
thanks for that. I'm starting to figure this stuff out. This year I will be doing Computer Architecture for the first time. The book I have to use seems to be hopeless at explaining why or how we convert, add, subtract, divide and multiply binary. Thanks to RUclips and videos like this, my course will not be a waste of money and time.
Thanks a lot! Feeling stupid now because i didn't completely understand this in my lecture, but understood it through a breeze thanks to this tutorial!
If It wasn't for people like you who make these videos, I would never get this type of stuff. THANKS. My teacher at school is horrible and doesn't teach.
I hate to point this out because it is a good video, but at the very end she says " so to write the number 128 in binary, 1 0 etc....." When she should of said 188 instead of 128.... look for yourselves and listen 4:51 in
I am planning on taking an A+ class and am doing some research ahead of time since I am horrible at math and kind of slow lol. I was worried I wasn't going to get it thank you I wish I had you as my math teacher back in high school. THANK YOU.
wao, thank you, you made it very easy.... you a great teacher. i couldn't understand the way my tutor was explaining at the class... but with u i got in the first explanation.THANK YOU
just keep multiplying the values by 2 it's exactley the same just with bigger numbers so correct me if i'm wrong but i think that for a 16 bit it's -bit0= 1 -bit1= 2 -bit2= 4 -bit3= 8 -bit4= 16 -bit5= 32 -bit6= 64 -bit7= 128 -bit8= 256 -bit9= 512 -bit10= 1024 -bit11= 2048 -bit12= 4096 -bit13= 8192 -bit14= 16384 -bit15= 32768
Thank you so much I could not figure out the problem on my own and I didn't understand the way my professor explained it. But as soon as I saw your video wham bam thank you ma'am!!! I GOT IT!!!
how about converting larger numbers in binary? it doesn't work with 128 ,64,32,16,8,4,2,1 If you guys want to convert numbers between 300-1000 use 512,256,128 ,64,32,16,8,4,2,1 and do this method on the video..My personal opinion is that the divided by two method is easier and most common.
csandreas1 use this Binary system includes the numbers from 0 to 255. So, 255 is understood to be 1 byte. Any number above 255 is a new byte or second byte and then you have to create a new binary number in the binary system. For instance - let's get number 631, so it is equal to 255+255+121 = 631 which in binary system will be : 255 : 2 =1 127: 2 = 1 63: 2= 1 31:2 = 1 15:2 = 1 7:2 =1 3:2 = 1 1:2 = 1 0:2 = 0 and 127 : 2 =1 60 : 2 = 0 30 : 2 = 0 15 ;2 = 1 7 : 2 = 1 3 : 2 = 1 1 : 2 = 1 The number 631 in binary system will be : 011111111 + 011111111 + 01111001 So the rule is : "if the number can be divided by 2 is 0, if not it is 1
I wish i live with you in the same house,God ...you opened my brain...why does most teachers make it difficult for student to understand a simple thing.-------" you are really the best teacher i found here in youtube in coverting Binary to decimal and decimal to binay Thank you very much.
That was a really helpful detailed lesson! I tried other tutorials before but they all sucked and were too fast paced not like this one. Thank you so much for this!!
My daughter brought home some ICT (what ever that is ) homework from High School, and us being of pre-computer age parents were stuffed. I briefly did binary 40 years ago in junior school, but that was just science fiction. How ever I do know that computer memory goes up in doubles. A quick RUclips search , and about half of your 2nd video, we had it worked out. Is it really that easy? Thanks
@anywayszja That probably happening because the number you're trying to convert is too large to represent with only 8 bits. 11111111 equals 255. If you're trying to convert a decimal number higher than 255, you will need more bits. Just keep doubling the value of the bit you're adding until you have a number higher than the number you're converting. (After 128 you would have 256, 512, 1024, etc.) Hope this helps!
This video is so helpful, I am taking an online networking class and reading how to do this from the book is too difficult. Thanks for uploading this! This video will help me ace this chapter.
This video was on my school web page for foundations of I.T. and like StuziCamis said "Bam!! I know how to write binary!" it's was so easy. why didn't I get it before? But I do now ;) Thanks so much :D
thank you for this video. i am trying to learn binary for my computer class in college. but i am a visual learner and its a strictly online class. so thank you.
@leok31 since people think in decimal (5 apples+ 5 apples=10apples) yet electronics don't 'digital electronics' uses binary for a wide variety of things. a microcontroller has pins and each pin can have 2 states (the GND(0V) meaning 0 and the VCC(usually around 5V) meaning 1) it's impossible to read a 2 since it just checks if you put 0 or 5V on it. (10V won't be read as 2... You'll be lucky if you didn't break it by doing this)
amazing teacher, thank you very much for this video..it helps me a lot in studying ccna. i hope to see more videos for cisco reviews...more power to you ma'am...God bless you.........anonymous
you are an angel sent by God! i am a refresher of this course/subject, it was 5 years ago since the last time my teacher taught me this.. they are right YOU ARE 100% BETTER THAN MY PRO! MORE VIDEOS PLEASE :d
you complete legend! u just saved my math assignment :D this conversion stuff was my last question and i hadn't been able to do it for hours...u god sent! lolz
@leok31 so people thought of a way to convert these 0's and 1's to something normal people would understand.. and so was binary born. simple example: you press a key on your keyboard, making some pins become 1 and others become 0,the micro controller reads a binary 97 the program then sees the 97 and knows this means the letter a is pressed.. so it starts another program which prints the letter a on your screen.
iam a rookie in this industry and i swear the way you teach this i never see this before thanks a million to teach a dumb person about binary, god bless you maa'm
584 in binary is 1001001000. Using the video above won't help because you have to go higher for the powers of 2. Up to 2 to the power of 9. Then follow the video's instructions.
Your video was great!! My teacher taught me but I didn't get a thing. Can you also make a video to how to convert Binary to Hexadecimal and vice-versa? I would really appreciate that :) Thanks a ton.
thank you thank you so much I was really strugglling with converting from binary to decimal nad from decimal to binary but after i watched your videos, I really really learned well thank you so much (:
Hi there. i fully understand this method and i found it very easy to learn. However I'm a little confused with a few numbers that has the + or - sign next to them. an example of this being - convert the number -78 into Binary and +53 into Binary. What effects does the + and - have? thanks!
a lesson from my class that took 4 and half hours and it only took you a few minutes, the best part it is that i learned it from you and not from my prof
Hajj
you just helped my IT career.
This was perfect!, most college professors would make it more difficult and too much time wasted ***Perfect Video***
Thank you Abigail! This is crazy useful. I looked at other ways to solve conversions, and they were weirdly difficult. You made it look almost too easy!
thank you for this, it really helped me alot. its hard to understand all this while a professor wants you to write it down off a projector and then try to concentrate at the same time.
my left ear appreciates the concise explanation, as well as the method in practice, way simpler than others, much appreciated in 2022!!
Thank you for presenting the concept with such simplicity and clarity. My 6th grader is loving it and feels on top of it.
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU JUST SAVED MY LIFE!
I was totally gonna fail this section of my midterm tomorrow
For those of you who tried larger numbers and got all ones. Here is what she forgot to mention. If the number you are converting is larger than the next power of two in the series then you must include that number (the power of two) into your table.

she got all wrong and it does not work for programmers
skoprivlenski I am not sure what you mean. Maybe give a more detailed explanation of your problem and I might be able to help. With a few tweaks to her method you should be able to convert any decimal number into a binary number.
Thank you. You explained it very well and I completely understood it. It was easy to follow and I wish more teachers were more like you.
You made this so very easy to understand doing subtraction instead of division. Thank you so much!
Hours of class compressed into minutes of videos.
Awesome.

54 /2 = 27, 27 / 2 =13, 13/2 = 6, 6/2 = 3, 3/2 = 1...
Show 1 for all odd numbers...
011011
Reverse...
110110
Same answer :)
The simple explanation made it easy to understand. Great!
holy crap. sat in a compsci class for 4 hours. i learnt more here. AND ITS FREEE. :(
Finally some one who knows how to teach this as to where it makes sense to me
Best Way to convert DecimaI into Binary ... Great work
wao, thank you, you made it very easy.... you a great teacher.
i couldn't understand the way my tutor was explaining at the class... but with u i got in the first explanation.THANK YOU
Thank you so much for posting this video Ma'am! You made my life easier ^^
just keep multiplying the values by 2 it's exactley the same just with bigger numbers
so correct me if i'm wrong but i think that for a 16 bit it's
-bit0= 1
-bit1= 2
-bit2= 4
-bit3= 8
-bit4= 16
-bit5= 32
-bit6= 64
-bit7= 128
-bit8= 256
-bit9= 512
-bit10= 1024
-bit11= 2048
-bit12= 4096
-bit13= 8192
-bit14= 16384
-bit15= 32768
The first time i understood how to do binary and easily to remember. Thanks
Thank you so much I could not figure out the problem on my own and I didn't understand the way my professor explained it. But as soon as I saw your video wham bam thank you ma'am!!! I GOT IT!!!
Many thanks, why cant my teachers be that good at explaining things.

For instance - let's get number 631, so it is equal to 255+255+121 = 631 which in binary system will be :

15:2 = 1
7:2 =1
3:2 = 1
1:2 = 1
0:2 = 0
and
127 : 2 =1
60 : 2 = 0
30 : 2 = 0
15 ;2 = 1
7 : 2 = 1
3 : 2 = 1
1 : 2 = 1
The number 631 in binary system will be : 011111111 + 011111111 + 01111001
So the rule is : "if the number can be divided by 2 is 0, if not it is 1
"Binary is bi." I love it! XD
I wish i live with you in the same house,God ...you opened my brain...why does most teachers make it difficult for student to understand a simple thing.-------" you are really the best teacher i found here in youtube in coverting Binary to decimal and decimal to binay Thank you very much.
you is the best teacher in the entire universe
your best teacher ever whoever disliked it shame on you so easy wish my teachers at school were so down to earth and nice thanks
I'm back for a refresher :) Your method is much better than my professor's
This is excellent lesson to learn this type of problems. Thanks so much.. I learned this in minutes, and it was so easy to follow.
That was a really helpful detailed lesson! I tried other tutorials before but they all sucked and were too fast paced not like this one. Thank you so much for this!!

thank u very much teacher you are a best teacher about teaching binary you make me it so easy thank u very much teacher :)
Great tool...video...Made it so simple to understand especially for a "rookie" like my self that is learning IT...Thank you
You made me understand this in less than a minute, THANKS!

how do i convert a negative decimal number to binary
help please!
You explained this to me so much better than my Professor ty so much
You are so good a lecturer, i really enjoy and un derstand the lecture.
Thanks
This video was on my school web page for foundations of I.T. and like StuziCamis said "Bam!! I know how to write binary!" it's was so easy. why didn't I get it before? But I do now ;) Thanks so much :D
You are so ingenuius, please keep up your good lecture.
You're great! You explain it so clearly. I wish we would have more educators like you.
Thank so so so so so so so much ,, i hope mt professor can teach us like this .. Thanl .. Abdullah .. from Sausi Arabi
These two videos helped me pass my Technology mid term, thanks! :D
thank you for this video. i am trying to learn binary for my computer class in college. but i am a visual learner and its a strictly online class. so thank you.

you have NO IDEA how much this helped!
you complete legend! u just saved my math assignment :D this conversion stuff was my last question and i hadn't been able to do it for hours...u god sent! lolz
Please upload a video about Hexadecimal and Octal conversion. u r one of the best.
Thank you so much for the video you explained it so clearly unlike my professor.
@leok31 so people thought of a way to convert these 0's and 1's to something normal people would understand.. and so was binary born. simple example: you press a key on your keyboard, making some pins become 1 and others become 0,the micro controller reads a binary 97 the program then sees the 97 and knows this means the letter a is pressed.. so it starts another program which prints the letter a on your screen.
thank you very much... this video explains " Binary conversions " perfectly !!!
Yes thank you so much for the simple tutorial. I now have a greater understanding of converting decimal to binary
This really helped out with an IT assignment thank you very much
You need more bits of memory. Instead of 8-bits you can move up to 16-bits, for example.
Superb explanation whoever you are keep it up
Thank you so very much for this tutorial it has really assisted with me with my homework :), now it is not so complicated
You said 128 but meant and pointed to 188. Loved your video!
That was AWESOME, I got it immediately!!! Thank you!!!
Thank you...now i understand how to convert decimal to binary
This video was greatness Abigail! Thanks for sharing!!!! God Bless!
Thank you for a very simple and easy to understand explanation of this topic. I will be sure to let people know about this video.
iam a rookie in this industry and i swear the way you teach this i never see this before thanks a million to teach a dumb person about binary, god bless you maa'm
Wow! Thank you for explaining it this way...I understand it much better now.
this is the easiest method I have found...thank you SO much for this upload!
Thank you so much! I finally understand how to convert it.
This just saved my life!!! Teaching this tomorrow
My left ear hurts-problem with using headphones
Thanks a lot Ma'am!
You explained it very well:D
It was very helpful.Thanks again:)
Thnx this video really helped me
thank you mam!!!! your presentation was much way easy. I did understand it all with just one look!
You deserve to go to heaven for helping a lot of people (': !
i passed my test cause of this. BOOYAH. thanks! :]
Great video. Im just starting out with this. Quick question, why do we need to convert decimal to binary?
Thank you for this. This is the easiest method I have found.
very good trick.....
keep it up ..........
584 in binary is 1001001000. Using the video above won't help because you have to go higher for the powers of 2. Up to 2 to the power of 9. Then follow the video's instructions.
i hate people who say "ecksetra". i dont know why, but the sound of that mispronunciation burns inside me with the fury of ten thousand white hot suns
That's my teacher!!!!!!!
Your video was great!! My teacher taught me but I didn't get a thing. Can you also make a video to how to convert Binary to Hexadecimal and vice-versa? I would really appreciate that :)
Thanks a ton.
thank you for sharing this easy method.
thank you thank you so much
I was really strugglling with converting from binary to decimal nad from decimal to binary but after i watched your videos, I really really learned well
thank you so much (:
Hi there. i fully understand this method and i found it very easy to learn.
However I'm a little confused with a few numbers that has the + or - sign next to them.
an example of this being - convert the number -78 into Binary and +53 into Binary.
What effects does the + and - have? thanks!
Thanks, yeah, I understand now. So like with decibels, when it gets to a certain amount we just add another unit. Thanks for the help :)
You have completely simplified this for me! Thankyou!
K k thanx....Ur videos are very well explained and easy to understand thanx again
I love this guy's teaching:)
you are better than my professor =D thank you
Quite helpful! Much easier to understand how to do it this way than it is from a text book.
really thank you for ur very good explanation i appreciate ur work to post it on youtube for the others. thanks a lot
