Convert 2904 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 >= 2904

20 = 1

21 = 2

22 = 4

23 = 8

24 = 16

25 = 32

26 = 64

27 = 128

28 = 256

29 = 512

210 = 1024

211 = 2048

212 = 4096 <--- Stop: This is greater than 2904

Since 4096 is greater than 2904, we use 1 power less as our starting point which equals 11

Build binary notation

Work backwards from a power of 11

We start with a total sum of 0:

211 = 2048

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

Multiplying this coefficient by our original value, we get: 1 * 2048 = 2048

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
0 + 2048 = 2048

This is <= 2904, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 2048

Our binary notation is now equal to 1

210 = 1024

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2048 + 1024 = 3072

This is > 2904, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 2048

Our binary notation is now equal to 10

29 = 512

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2048 + 512 = 2560

This is <= 2904, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 2560

Our binary notation is now equal to 101

28 = 256

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2560 + 256 = 2816

This is <= 2904, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 2816

Our binary notation is now equal to 1011

27 = 128

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2816 + 128 = 2944

This is > 2904, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 2816

Our binary notation is now equal to 10110

26 = 64

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2816 + 64 = 2880

This is <= 2904, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 2880

Our binary notation is now equal to 101101

25 = 32

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2880 + 32 = 2912

This is > 2904, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 2880

Our binary notation is now equal to 1011010

24 = 16

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2880 + 16 = 2896

This is <= 2904, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 2896

Our binary notation is now equal to 10110101

23 = 8

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2896 + 8 = 2904

This = 2904, so we assign our outside coefficient of 1 for this digit.

Our new sum becomes 2904

Our binary notation is now equal to 101101011

22 = 4

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2904 + 4 = 2908

This is > 2904, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 2904

Our binary notation is now equal to 1011010110

21 = 2

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2904 + 2 = 2906

This is > 2904, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 2904

Our binary notation is now equal to 10110101100

20 = 1

The highest coefficient less than 1 we can multiply this by to stay under 2904 is 1

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

Add our new value to our running total, we get:
2904 + 1 = 2905

This is > 2904, so we assign a 0 for this digit.

Our total sum remains the same at 2904

Our binary notation is now equal to 101101011000
