Step-by-step solution

5 steps

Let's convert the binary number 10110 to decimal.

  1. Write down the binary number and assign positions to each digit, starting from 0 on the right.

    1 0 1 1 0
    4 3 2 1 0 (Positions)

  2. Multiply each digit by 2 raised to the power of its position.

    (1 × 2⁴) + (0 × 2³) + (1 × 2²) + (1 × 2¹) + (0 × 2⁰)

  3. Calculate the powers of 2.

    (1 × 16) + (0 × 8) + (1 × 4) + (1 × 2) + (0 × 1)

  4. Perform the multiplications.

    16 + 0 + 4 + 2 + 0

  5. Sum the results.

    16 + 4 + 2 = 22

    The decimal equivalent of the binary number 10110 is 22.
