512 in Binary
512 in binary is 1000000000. Unlike the decimal number system where we use the digits 0 to 9 to represent a number, in a binary system, we use only 2 digits that are 0 and 1 (bits). We have used 10 bits to represent 512 in binary. In this article, let us learn how to convert the decimal number 512 to binary.
How to Convert 512 in Binary?
Step 1: Divide 512 by 2. Use the integer quotient obtained in this step as the dividend for the next step. Repeat the process until the quotient becomes 0.
| Dividend | Remainder |
|---|---|
| 512/2 = 256 | 0 |
| 256/2 = 128 | 0 |
| 128/2 = 64 | 0 |
| 64/2 = 32 | 0 |
| 32/2 = 16 | 0 |
| 16/2 = 8 | 0 |
| 8/2 = 4 | 0 |
| 4/2 = 2 | 0 |
| 2/2 = 1 | 0 |
| 1/2 = 0 | 1 |
Step 2: Write the remainder from bottom to top, i.e., in the reverse chronological order. This will give the binary equivalent of 512.
Therefore, the binary equivalent of decimal number 512 is 1000000000.

FAQs on 512 in Binary
What is 512 in Binary?
512 in binary is 1000000000. To find decimal to binary equivalent, divide 512 successively by 2 until the quotient becomes 0. The binary equivalent can be obtained by writing the remainder in each division step from the bottom to the top.
Find the Value of 2 × 512 in Binary Form.
We know that 512 in binary is 1000000000 and 2 is 10. Using the binary multiplication rules (0 × 0 = 0; 0 × 1 = 0 ; 1 × 0 = 0 and 1 × 1 = 1), we can multiply 1000000000 × 10 = 10000000000 which is 1024 in the decimal number system. [512 × 2 = 1024]
How to Convert 512 to Binary Equivalent?
We can divide 512 by 2 and continue the division till we get 0. Note down the remainder in each step.
- 512 mod 2 = 0 - LSB (Least Significant Bit)
- 256 mod 2 = 0
- 128 mod 2 = 0
- 64 mod 2 = 0
- 32 mod 2 = 0
- 16 mod 2 = 0
- 8 mod 2 = 0
- 4 mod 2 = 0
- 2 mod 2 = 0
- 1 mod 2 = 1 - MSB (Most Significant Bit)
Write the remainders from MSB to LSB. Therefore, the decimal number 512 in binary can be represented as 1000000000.
How Many Bits Does 512 in Binary Have?
We can count the number of zeros and ones to see how many bits are used to represent 512 in binary, i.e., 1000000000. Therefore, we have used 10 bits to represent 512 in binary.
What is the Binary Equivalent of 512 + 90?
512 in binary number system is 1000000000 and 90 is 1011010. We can add the binary equivalent of 512 and 90 using binary addition rules [0 + 0 = 0, 0 + 1 = 1, 1 + 1 = 10 note that 1 is a carry over to the next bit]. Therefore, (1000000000)₂ + (1011010)₂ = (1001011010)₂ which is nothing but 602.
