100 100 can be easily converted from decimal to binary.

The methods outlined below will assist in this conversion. Let’s explore the process.

Expansion Method: Here is the step-by-step process of converting 100 100 using the expansion method.

Step 1 - Determine the place values: In the binary system, each place value is a power of 2. Therefore, we will ascertain the powers of 2.

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,

213 = 8192,

214 = 16384,

215 = 32768,

216 = 65536,

Since 65536 is less than 100 100, we use up to 216.

Step 2 - Identify the largest power of 2: In this step, identify the largest power of 2 that is less than or equal to 100 100.

Since 216 = 65536 is the number we are looking for, write 1 in the 216 place. Now, subtract 65536 from 100 100. 100 100 - 65536 = 34564.

Step 3 - Identify the next largest power of 2: Find the largest power of 2 that fits into 34564.

The next largest power is 215 = 32768. Now, write 1 in the 215 place and subtract 32768 from 34564. 34564 - 32768 = 1796.

Step 4 - Continue the process until the remainder is 0.

Step 5 - Identify the unused place values: Write 0s in the remaining places.

Step 6 - Write the values in reverse order to represent 100 100 in binary.

Grouping Method: This method involves dividing 100 100 by 2. Let’s see the step-by-step conversion.

Step 1 - Divide the given number 100 100 by 2.

Step 2 - The quotient becomes the new dividend. Continue dividing by 2 until the quotient is 0.

Step 3 - Write down the remainders from bottom to top. Therefore, 100 100 (decimal) = 110000110100 (binary).
