We wish to find the largest power of 2 (or multiple of power of 2) less than or equal to 23. This number is 16, so we write 23 = 16+7. Repeat the same process, the largest power of 2 less than or equal to the remainder (7) is 4. In the end, you should get\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"23+=+2%5E4+%2B+0%2A2%5E3+%2B+2%5E2+%2B+2%5E1+%2B+2%5E0\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hence, 23 in base 10 is 10111 in binary.
