Answer:

1. 12 = 1100

2. 24 = 11000

3. 48 = 110000

4. 96 = 1100000

Explanation:

A. 12 to binary;

12/2

12/2 = 6 R 0

6/2 = 3 R 0

3/2 = 1 R 1

1/2 = 0 R 1

12 base 10 = 1100 base 2.

B. 24 to binary;

24/2

24/2 = 12 R 0

12/2 = 6 R 0

6/2 = 3 R 0

3/2 = 1 R 1

1/2 = 0 R 1

24 base 10 = 11000 base 2.

C. 48 to binary;

48/2

48/2 = 24 R 0

24/2 = 12 R 0

12/2 = 6 R 0

6/2 = 3 R 0

3/2 = 1 R 1

1/2 = 0 R 1

48 base 10 = 110000 base 2.

D. 96 to binary;

96/2

96/2 = 48 R 0

48/2 = 24 R 0

24/2 = 12 R 0

12/2 = 6 R 0

6/2 = 3 R 0

3/2 = 1 R 1

1/2 = 0 R 1  

96 base 10 = 1100000 base 2.

Note:

  • R is remainder and you'll read it upward.
  • Base 10 is decimal.
  • Base 2 is binary.
