The binary multiplication table is the same as the truth table of the logical conjunction operation formula_6. Long division in binary is again similar to its decimal counterpart. In the example below, the divisor is 101, or 5 decimal, while the dividend is 11011, or 27 decimal. The procedure is the same as that of decimal long division; here, the divisor 101 goes
