===Decimal to binary=== [[File:Decimal to Binary Conversion.gif|alt=|frame|Conversion of (357)<sub>10</sub> to binary notation results in (101100101)]] To convert from a base-10 [[Integer (computer science)|integer]] to its base-2 (binary) equivalent, the number is [[division by two|divided by two]]. The remainder is the [[least-significant bit]]. The quotient is again divided by two; its remainder becomes the next least significant bit. This process repeats until a quotient of one is reached. The sequence of remainders (including the final quotient of one) forms the binary value, as each remainder must be either zero or one when dividing by two. For example, (357)<sub>10</sub> is expressed as (101100101)<sub>2.</sub><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.chalkstreet.com/aptipedia/knowledgebase/base-system/|title=Base System|access-date=31 August 2016|archive-date=23 October 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171023010521/https://www.chalkstreet.com/aptipedia/knowledgebase/base-system/|url-status=usurped}}</ref>
