What decimal number is represented by the binary 101 (read as one zero one)?
Binary number only two possible outcomes of each partial multiplication: For example, the binary numbers 1011 and 1010 are multiplied as follows: Binary numbers can also be multiplied with bits after a binary point: See also Booth's multiplication algorithm. 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
Binary-coded decimal −50,000,000 to +49,999,999, and −1 is represented as 99999999. (As with two's complement binary numbers, the range is not symmetric about zero.) Fixed-point decimal numbers are supported by some programming languages (such as COBOL, PL/I and Ada). These languages allow the programmer to specify an implicit decimal point in front of one of the digits. For example, a packed decimal value encoded with the bytes 12 34 56 7C represents the fixed-point value +1,234.567 when the implied decimal point is located between the 4th and 5th digits: The decimal point is not actually stored in memory, as the packed BCD
