1st I'll convert to decimal:
10101 base 2 = 1*2^4 + 0*2^3 + 1*2^2 + 0*2^1 + 1*2^0
10101 base 2 = 16 + 4 + 1
10101 base 2 = 21 base 10
------------------------
10 base 2 = 1*2^1 = 2 base 10
---------------------------
21/2 = 10.5 base 10
---------------------
Converting back to base 2,
10.5 = 8 + 2 + 1/2
10.5 = 1*2^3 + 1*2^1 + 1*2^(-1)
10.5 = 1010.1 base 2
--------------------------
It can be done directly in
base 2, but I'm not too good at that

----------------
You're dividing by 2, so move the binary point (similar to decimal point) 1 space to the left.
= 1010.1
