Steps to convert binary fractional number to decimal
Binary number system is the fundamentals for the internal storage and processing of data used by electronic computers. In daily life we use decimal number system that has base or radix 10. It means in this number system there are TEN digits from 0 to 9. But storage data is managed by computers in the form of binary digits. To understand how these digits are formed by electronic machines. Here we provide a step by step conversion of binary numbers to the decimal numbers.
For conversion of binary to decimal here we have a series of steps that followed to find the equivalent decimal number.
- First of all we have to provide a valid binary number.
- In second step we will write the weights or powers of each digit in particular number.
- Power/weight is obtained from the position of each digit starting from right to left of integer part.
- The first digit of integer part from right hand side will have weight 0
- Subsequently the weight of digits will be incremented by 1 to left hand side.
- Each position of the digit is raised to the power of given number system base.
- In this example this will raise to the power of 2. (As of given number system is binary).
The equivalent decimal of binary 0 and 1 is same as 0 and 1.
Example
How to convert fractional Binary into Decimal
for conversion of binary numbers having fractional part we assign negative weights to the fractional part digits and the calculate the required number. Each digit has negative power from its base. It's mean that the first digit will have power -1 second will have -2 and so Nth digit will have power -n.
