3. 1.1 NUMBERING SYSTEM
 A mathematical notation for representing numbers is
known as number system.
 A number system is a system for expressing numbers .
 The number system is used for representing the
information.
 The number system has different bases and the most
common of them are the decimal, binary, octal, and
hexadecimal.
 The base or radix of the number system is the
total number of the digit used in the number system.

14. CONVERSION OF BASE

15. 1.2 CONVERSION OF BASE
1.2.1 Decimal to Binary, Octal and Hexadecimal
1.2.2 Binary to Decimal, Octal and Hexadecimal
1.2.3 Octal to Binary, Decimal and Hexadecimal
1.2.4 Hexadecimal to Binary, Octal and Decimal

17. 1.2.1 DECIMAL TO BINARY CONVERSION
 Step 1: Divide the decimal
number by 2, get the integer
quotient and the remainder.
 Step 2: Convert the remainder to
the binary digit in that position.
 Step 3: Using the integer
quotient to repeat the steps until
the integer quotient equals to 0.

18. DECIMAL TO BINARY CONVERSION
 (62)10=?  (43)10=?

19. EXAMPLES
1. (78)10=? 2. (156)10=? 3.(266)10= ?

33. BINARY TO OCTAL
 For binary representation of octal
number, each octal number is
represented by 3 binary bits.
 For example, the octal number 5 is
represented by 101 while the octal
45 by 100101.

34. BINARY TO OCTAL

35. BINARY FRACTION TO OCTAL

36. BINARY TO HEXADECIMAL
 Start from the right-hand side by
dividing the given binary digits into
groups of four.
 Convert each group into the
hexadecimal number by applying
binary to decimal conversion
methods and then represent
decimal value to their
corresponding hexadecimal value.

48. FLOATING POINT NUMBER

50. 1.3 FLOATING POINT NUMBER
 very large integer number, storage problem
 Fixed point number means the fractional point(decimal point)
 Floating point numbers are also called as the real numbers.
 So representation of such number in floating form which have both integer and
fraction parts. It uses power 10.
 Parts of floating point number: 1. Mantissa II. Exponent
 Mantissa: It holds the main digits of floating point
 Exponent: It defines where the decimal point should be placed
 Example
 Only the mantissa and the exponent are stored. The base is implied (known already)
As it is not stored this will save memory capacity
