Number system

With the development of mathematics, many number systems were developed. The numbers used in each number system are different and their bases are also different. Generally, a number system is named on the basis of the total number of digits contained in it. Some of the popular number systems are as follows-

  1. Binary Number System
  2. Decimal Number System
  3. Octal Number System
  4. Hexadecimal Number System

Binary Number System

In the binary numeral system, only two digits 0 and 1 are used, so 2 is used in its base, 0 or 1 is called a bit. 

1 Byte = 8 Bits

The binary numeral system is also called the 'Place-Value system' because in this each binary digit has its own value which we represent as a power of 2 The value of the power of 2 increases from right to left goes.

Those which are on the left in the binary numeral system, represent Integer. The first bit on the left is of the largest value. That's why it is called the Most Significant Bit (MSB). The last bit on the right has the smallest value, so it is called the Least Significant Bit (LSB). 

Example 1- Convert (63)10 to a binary number.

Solution- 

binary

Hence, (63)10 = (111111)2

Example 2- Convert (63.125)10 to a binary number.

Solution- 

First step- Converting integer part to binary number by simple method-

binary

(63)10 ⟶ (111111)2

Second step- The binary conversion of the fractional part is as follows.

decimal to binary fraction

(.125)10 ⟶ (.001)2

Hence, (63.125)10 = (111111.001)2

Decimal Number System

Generally, the method of calculation we use to calculate is called the decimal number system. In this system ten digits- 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 are used. It is read from left to right. The value of the digits depends on their place in the decimal numeral system. The value of the numbers increases to the left because in this system its value is fixed by the place of the number, hence it is also called the 'place value system'. For example, in the number 819, 8 represents the hundred, 1 represents the tens and 9 represents ones, so here 8 is the most significant digit (MSD) and 9 is the least significant digit (LSD). 

Left ⟶ 819 ← Right 

Example 1- Convert (111111)2 to a decimal number.

Solution- 

= 1 ✕ 25 + 1 ✕ 24 + 1 ✕ 23 + 1 ✕ 22 + 1 ✕ 21 + 1 ✕ 20

= 32 + 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1

= 63

Hence, (111111)2 = (63)10

Example 2- (111111.101)2 को दशमलव संख्या में बदलें। 

Solution- 

First step- Converting the integer part to a decimal number by the usual method-

= 1 ✕ 25 + 1 ✕ 24 + 1 ✕ 23 + 1 ✕ 22 + 1 ✕ 21 + 1 ✕ 20

= 32 + 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1

= 63

(111111)2 ⟶ (63)10

Second step- The decimal conversion of the fractional part is as follows, in which the negative power of 2 is multiplied by adding them. On moving from left to right, the negative power of 2 increases gradually.

= 1 ✕ 2-1 + 0 ✕ 2-2 + 1 ✕ 2-3 

= 1 ✕ 12 + 0 ✕ 14 + 1 ✕ 18 

= 0.5 + 0 + 0.125

= 0.625

(.101)2 ⟶ (.625)10

Hence, (111111.101)2 = (63.625)10

Octal Number System

The octal numeral system uses the eight digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 The base of this numeral system is 8. A digit in the octal numeral system represents a group of three binary digits. Following is the table of octal numeral system-

Octal NumberBinary Number
0000
1001
2010
3011
4100
5101
6110
7111

Example 1- Convert (98)10 to octal number.

Solution- 

Octal number system

Hence, (98)10 = (142)8

Example 2- Convert (1101)2 to octal number.

Solution- 

(1101)2 = 1 ✕ 23 + 1 ✕ 22 + 0 ✕ 21 + 1 ✕ 20 

= 8 + 4 + 0 + 1 = 13

(1101)2 ⟶ (13)10

Now, (13)10

octal number


(13)10 ⟶ (15)8

Hence, (1101)2 = (15)8

Second method- In this, 1101 will be combined into pairs of three bits. 

001 101 (The number 0 on the left is used to complete a three bits pair.)

(1 5)8   (On keeping the equivalent value from the table)

Hence, (1101)2 = (15)8

Second step- The conversion of fractional part into octal number is as follows-

octal

Mainly this process is repeated for up to three digits only. 

(.95)10 ⟶ (.746)8

Hence, (98.95)10 = (142.746)8

Example 4- Convert (142.746)8 to a decimal number.

Solution- 

First step- Converting the integer part from octal number to decimal number is done in the following way-

= 1 ✕ 82 + 4 ✕ 81 + 2 ✕ 80 

= 64 + 32 + 2 = 98

(142)8 ⟶ (98)10

Second step- The conversion of fractional part from octal number to decimal number is as follows-

= 7 ✕ 8-1 + 4 ✕ 8-2 + 6 ✕ 8-3 

= 7 ✕ 18 + 4 ✕ 164 + 6 ✕ 1512 

= 0.875 + 0.0625 + 0.0117

= 0.9492 ≈ 0.95

(.746)8 ⟶ (.95)10

Hence, (142.746) = (98.95)10 

Hexadecimal Number System

The base of numbers in the hexadecimal numeral system is 16. With the help of this system, information is shown in a short form, nowadays this system is being used in big computers, in this system 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F up to 16 letters are used. A, B, C, D, E, and F are used in place of 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 respectively. This is done because all the digits after 9 come under the decimal system.

Types of Numbers

Numbers are divided into several parts on the basis of their nature and structure which are as follows.

Natural numbers

The numbers used to count anything are called natural numbers.
Peano's postulates- "Numbers used to count things."
It is denoted by 'N'.
N = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ............∞}

Integers

The set from -∞ to ∞ is called an integer, it is represented by 'Z'. Z is used for the German word 'Zahlen' which means 'numbers' or 'to count'.
Z = {-∞, ...........-5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 .........., ∞}
Integer numbers can be classified into positive and negative integers. Positive integers are denoted by Z+ and negative integers are denoted by Z-.

Z- = {-∞, ...........-5, -4, -3, -2, -1}

Z+ = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5 .........., ∞}

Qus- If a and b are any two integers, will ab be integers?

ab = 00 (undefined)

5-2 = 125 = 0.04

This is not true because it becomes undefined if the value is 0.

Whole Numbers

When 0 is also included in the natural numbers, the set becomes the set of whole numbers, it is denoted by 'W'. 

W = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 .........., ∞}

Even Numbers

The natural numbers which are divisible by 2 are called even numbers, it is mostly represented by 'E'.

E = {2, 4, 6, 8, ............, ∞}
