Convert 56491 to Binary

Now you already know the most important thing:

1101110010101011₁₀ equals 56491₂ if unsigned.

If 56491 in binary is signed such as with two’s complement, then the binary code has a number of trailing zeroes, e.g. 0001101110010101011 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 56491 signed using two’s complement, will start with one or more 1’s, but the exact code for -56491 decimal depends on the signed number representation system and number of bits available.

Here you can convert binary to decimal.
