  1. Understand the request.

    You're asking for the binary representation of the ASCII code for the character '0'.

  2. Recall the ASCII decimal value for '0'.

    As previously stated, the decimal ASCII value for '0' is 48.

  3. Convert the decimal value 48 to its binary equivalent.

    48 ÷ 2 = 24 remainder 0
    24 ÷ 2 = 12 remainder 0
    12 ÷ 2 = 6 remainder 0
    6 ÷ 2 = 3 remainder 0
    3 ÷ 2 = 1 remainder 1
    1 ÷ 2 = 0 remainder 1

    Reading the remainders from bottom to top, the binary representation is 110000.

  4. Format the binary code for ASCII.

    Standard ASCII uses 7 bits, but it's often represented with 8 bits (a full byte), with the leading bit usually being 0. To represent '0' (decimal 48) in 8-bit binary, we add a leading zero.

    The binary ASCII code for '0' is 00110000.
