Binary to Decimal Conversion

1. Convert 110110_2 to Base 10

Step 1: Write down the binary number and its positional values:

    \[         110110_2 = 1 \cdot 2^5 + 1 \cdot 2^4 + 0 \cdot 2^3 + 1 \cdot 2^2 + 1 \cdot 2^1 + 0 \cdot 2^0         \]

Step 2: Calculate each term:

    \[         = 1 \cdot 32 + 1 \cdot 16 + 0 \cdot 8 + 1 \cdot 4 + 1 \cdot 2 + 0 \cdot 1         \]

    \[         = 32 + 16 + 0 + 4 + 2 + 0 = 54         \]

Final Result: 110110_2 = 54_{10}

2. Convert 11011_2 to Base 10

Step 1: Write down the binary number and its positional values:

    \[         11011_2 = 1 \cdot 2^4 + 1 \cdot 2^3 + 0 \cdot 2^2 + 1 \cdot 2^1 + 1 \cdot 2^0         \]

Step 2: Calculate each term:

    \[         = 1 \cdot 16 + 1 \cdot 8 + 0 \cdot 4 + 1 \cdot 2 + 1 \cdot 1         \]

    \[         = 16 + 8 + 0 + 2 + 1 = 27         \]

Final Result: 11011_2 = 27_{10}

3. Convert 101011_2 to Base 10

Step 1: Write down the binary number and its positional values:

    \[         101011_2 = 1 \cdot 2^5 + 0 \cdot 2^4 + 1 \cdot 2^3 + 0 \cdot 2^2 + 1 \cdot 2^1 + 1 \cdot 2^0         \]

Step 2: Calculate each term:

    \[         = 1 \cdot 32 + 0 \cdot 16 + 1 \cdot 8 + 0 \cdot 4 + 1 \cdot 2 + 1 \cdot 1         \]

    \[         = 32 + 0 + 8 + 0 + 2 + 1 = 43         \]

Final Result: 101011_2 = 43_{10}

4. Convert 011011011_2 to Base 10

Step 1: Write down the binary number and its positional values:

    \[         011011011_2 = 0 \cdot 2^8 + 1 \cdot 2^7 + 1 \cdot 2^6 + 0 \cdot 2^5 + 1 \cdot 2^4 + 1 \cdot 2^3 + 0 \cdot 2^2 + 1 \cdot 2^1 + 1 \cdot 2^0         \]

Step 2: Calculate each term:

    \[         = 0 \cdot 256 + 1 \cdot 128 + 1 \cdot 64 + 0 \cdot 32 + 1 \cdot 16 + 1 \cdot 8 + 0 \cdot 4 + 1 \cdot 2 + 1 \cdot 1         \]

    \[         = 0 + 128 + 64 + 0 + 16 + 8 + 0 + 2 + 1 = 219         \]

Final Result: 011011011_2 = 219_{10}
