855510 = 100001011010112
Decimal 8555 = 10000101101011 Binary


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

Here’s the proof that 10000101101011 is the correct result:

1×2^13 + 0x2^12 + 0x2^11 + 0x2^10 + 0x2^9 + 1×2^8 + 0x2^7 + 1×2^6 + 1×2^5 + 0x2^4 + 1×2^3 + 0x2^2 + 1×2^1 + 1×2^0 = 8555

Now you already know the most important thing:

1000010110101110 equals 85552 if unsigned.

If 8555 in binary is signed such as with two’s complement, then the binary code has a number of trailing zeroes, e.g. 00010000101101011 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 8555 signed using two’s complement, will start with one or more 1’s, but the exact code for -8555 decimal depends on the signed number representation system and number of bits available.

Here you can convert binary to decimal.
