If you want to know how to convert the number please read the instructions on the homepage.

51810 = 10000001102
Decimal 518 = 1000000110 Binary


Any integer can be written as sum of potencies to the power of 2, known as binary code.

Here’s the proof that 1000000110 is the correct result:

1×2^9 + 0x2^8 + 0x2^7 + 0x2^6 + 0x2^5 + 0x2^4 + 0x2^3 + 1×2^2 + 1×2^1 + 0x2^0 = 518

Now you already know the most important thing:

100000011010 equals 5182 if unsigned.

If 518 in binary is signed such as with two’s complement, then the binary code has a number of trailing zeroes, e.g. 0001000000110 in which the leftmost bit is the sign bit, followed perhaps by more trailing 0’s, and then by magnitude bits.

The reason to have the binary signed is to accommodate for negative numbers, in which case the sign bit is 1 in our example.

Therefore, minus 518 signed using two’s complement, will start with one or more 1’s, but the exact code for -518 decimal depends on the signed number representation system and number of bits available.

Here you can convert binary to decimal.
