Binary Numbers 1
- It is a number expressed in the binary numerical system, which is
used in digital electronics.
- This system represents numerical values using two symbols: 0 and 1.
- Binary numbers can be used also in mathematical operations such as division,
subtraction, addiction or mutiplication.
- Addition
- Adding two binary numbers together is like adding decimal numbers, except 1 + 1 = 10
- Multiplication
- Multiplication in the binary system works the same way as in the decimal system.
- Division
- Follow the same rules as in decimal division. For the sake of simplicity, throw away the remainder.
- Subtraction
- It goes the same way as addition, but obviously in the inverse way subtracting the binary
numbers.
- They don't translate only numerical values, but also letters and messages in any
language.
- Example: 01010001 01110101 01101001 01101110 01100100 11000011 10101101 01101111 00100000

01100001 = Quindío region is in Colombia.
- There exists a procedure to choose what numbers to type or what code so you can translate what you
want to tell or write.
- The binary number system plays a central role in how information of all kinds is stored on
computers.
- Units
- Each of de Binary Digits is called a bit, 8 bits
form 1 byte.
- Each of this units are used to measure the storage of
information of a computational device .
- Bytes are not used a lot nowadays because they are a very small unit. Most
common is to have mega bytes, giga bytes or tara bytes.
- It is hard to find a daily use for it, however it can work as a code for encrypt messages or for programming for a computer programmer.
