Convert 10ten to a binary. Explain your answer
In binary, the number 10ten is represented as 1010. This is because each digit in a binary number corresponds to a power of 2, with the rightmost digit representing 2^0, the next digit representing 2^1, and so on.
So in the binary number 1010, the first 1 represents 2^3 (8), the second 0 represents 2^2 (4), the third 1 represents 2^1 (2), and the last 0 represents 2^0 (1). Adding these up, we get 8 + 0 + 2 + 0 = 10, which is equivalent to the decimal number 10ten.
