ChatGPT answer: ChatGPT answer:


„From decimal to binary number system Example 1:
Example 1: Add the binary numbers ‘101’ and ‘110’.
Convert ‘13’ to a binary There is a carry of 1 to the higher position.

1. 13 ÷ 2 = 6 with a remainder of 1.
2. 6 ÷ 2 = 3 with a remainder od 0.
3. 3 ÷ 2 = 1 with a remainder of 1.
4. 1 ÷ 2 = 0 with a remainder of 1.
