Example 2: Convert the decimal number 64, i.e., (64)  to binary.
                                                                      10
                    2  64

                    2  32            → 0
                    2  16            → 0
                    2    8            → 0

                    2    4            → 0
                    2    2            → 0

                          1            → 0


                 The binary equivalent of (64)  is 1000000
                                              10
                 In other words, (64)  = (1000000) 2

                 Converting Binary to Decimal


                 To convert a binary number into a decimal number, follow these steps:
                    Start from the right-most digit known as the LSD before the fractional point and move leftwards.

                     While doing so, multiply each digit by 2 raised to a particular power. The powers of 2 start at 0 and
                   increase to 1, 2, and so on as you move leftward.

                    Add up all the resulting products. You will get your decimal number.
                 The given examples will help you understand the conversion.

                 Example 1: Convert (1111)  to decimal number.

                    = 15
                   (1111)  = (15)
