NUMBER SYSTEM

Number systems are the technique to represent numbers in the computer system architecture, every
value that you are saving or getting into/from computer memory has a defined number system.

Computer architecture supports following number systems

 Binary number system


 Octal number system
 Decimal number system
 Hexadecimal (hex) number system

BINARY NUMBER SYSTEM

A Binary number system has only two digits that are 0 and 1. Every number (value) represents with 0
and 1 in this number system. The base of binary number system is 2, because it has only two digits.

OCTAL NUMBER SYSTEM

Octal number system has only eight (8) digits from 0 to 7. Every number (value) represents with
0,1,2,3,4,5,6 and 7 in this number system. The base of octal number system is 8, because it has only 8
digits.

DECIMAL NUMBER SYSTEM

Decimal number system has only ten (10) digits from 0 to 9. Every number (value) represents with
0,1,2,3,4,5,6, 7,8 and 9 in this number system. The base of decimal number system is 10, because it has
only 10 digits.

HEXADECIMAL NUMBER SYSTEM

A Hexadecimal number system has sixteen (16) alphanumeric values from 0 to 9 and A to F. Every
number (value) represents with 0,1,2,3,4,5,6, 7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E and F in this number system. The base of
hexadecimal number system is 16, because it has 16 alphanumeric values. Here A is 10, B is 11, C is 12, D
is 14, E is 15 and F is 16.

DECIMAL TO OTHER

1. DECIMAL TO BINARY
To convert Number system from Decimal Number System to Any Other Base is quite easy; you
have to follow just two steps: A) Divide the Number (Decimal Number) by the base of target
base system (in which you want to convert the number: Binary (2), octal (8) and Hexadecimal
(16)). B) Write the remainder from step 1 as a Least Signification Bit (LSB) to Step last as a Most
Significant Bit (MSB).
2. DECIMAL TO OCTAL
3. DECIMAL TO HEXADECIMAL
4. BINARY TO OTHER
A) Multiply the digit with 2(with place value exponent). Eventually add all the multiplication
becomes the Decimal number.
