click, then put in any combination of ones and zeros, and the base 10 equivalent will be displayed. This is NOT a number generator. Do not put in anything that is not a one or zero, and ask before borrowing. How Binary Works Binary uses 2 numbers, one and zero. The zeroes always equal zero, and the ones equal whatever their place value is. Each place value is 2 times the previous place value. that means multiplying the binary number by 10, doubles its value. [You can test this yourself.] The one is multiplied by its place value, which equals the place value, because anything times 1 equals the number being multiplied. The place values where the one is are then added up, giving the base 10 equivalent. In binary, 1=1, 10=2, 100=4, 1000=8, and so on. The zeroes are place holders, because anything times 0 is 0, and a number + 0 equals the number.
