How to convert 1100 to decimal, step by step
Give each bit its place value — 1, 2, 4, 8 and so on, doubling from the right — then add up the places where the bit is 1.
| Bit | Position | Place value | Bit × place |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3 | 8 | 8 |
| 1 | 2 | 4 | 4 |
| 0 | 1 | 2 | 0 |
| 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
Add the last column: 8 + 4 = 12. So 1100₂ = 12₁₀.
In short: 1100₂: 1×8 = 8 → +1×4 = 12 → +0×2 = 12 → +0×1 = 12
