78610 = 11000100102
Decimal 786 = 1100010010 Binary


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

Here’s the proof that 1100010010 is the correct result:

1×2^9 + 1×2^8 + 0x2^7 + 0x2^6 + 0x2^5 + 1×2^4 + 0x2^3 + 0x2^2 + 1×2^1 + 0x2^0 = 786

Now you already know the most important thing:

110001001010 equals 7862 if unsigned.

If 786 in binary is signed such as with two’s complement, then the binary code has a number of trailing zeroes, e.g. 0001100010010 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 786 signed using two’s complement, will start with one or more 1’s, but the exact code for -786 decimal depends on the signed number representation system and number of bits available.

Here you can convert binary to decimal.
