This document is an assignment for an Introduction to Computing course that discusses number systems. It defines number systems as sets of values used to represent numbers in computers based on a specific base. It then lists and provides examples of the four main number systems: decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal. Decimal uses base 10 with digits 0-9. Binary uses base 2 with digits 0-1. Octal uses base 8 with digits 0-7. Hexadecimal uses base 16 with digits 0-9 and A-F. The assignment includes references used in the discussion of number systems.

1. What is Number System?

 Number System or known as Numerical System is interpret as a set of values or


technique used to represent a number or an expression in a computer architecture, this
is collection and combination of number that usually arrange in a specific order and
represented by its certain base, classified in four various type Decimal Number, Binary
Number, Octal Number, and Hexadecimal Number System. (www.includehelp.com)

2.3. List down the different types of Number System and Examples
The types of Number System are the ff:
 Decimal Number System
o This is the type of Number System that we employ in our daily basis usually it
widely used in computer application, it compose of 10 digits start from 0 and
ends with 9 and the base of this number system is 10 because it only contains
10 digits.

o
Examples;
(92)10 = 9×101+2×100
(200.10 = 2×102+0x101+0x10
 Binary Number System
o This is a type of Number System where in it contains only two symbols and digits
which is 0 and 1 this two digits can be represented as an electromechanical devices
where there are two states such “ON and OFF", “OPEN and CLOSED , Usually it is also
called as base 2 number system.
Examples; (101101)2
1011 binary = 1*1+1*2+0*4+1*8=11
1111 binary = 1*1+1*2+1*4+1*8=15

 Octal Number System


o This type of Number System or also know as oct it has base of 8 and this
number system contains of 8 digits which is start from 0 – and end's with 7
usually it is represented by a grouped pair of three binary numbers.
Example;
128 is interpret as 0010102, where in 1 is equal to 001 and
2 is equivalent to 010.
(432)8
Hexadecimal Number System
o Hexadecimal Number System or Also known Hex each value has 16 sequential
numbers as Base . It has 16 symbols or digits with possible value of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F. Where A, B, C, D, E and F are one bit
Interpretation of decimal values 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 Compared with
another number system, it is a more complex system than using just binary or
decimal number system.

o Examples;
19FDE16. 1C216
