How to convert 14 to binary, step by step
Keep dividing 14 by 2 and writing down each remainder. The remainders, read in reverse, are the answer.
| Number | ÷ 2 | Quotient | Remainder |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14 | 2 | 7 | 0 |
| 7 | 2 | 3 | 1 |
| 3 | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 2 | 0 | 1 |
Reading the remainder column from the bottom up gives 1110, so 14₁₀ = 1110₂. Check it back: 8 + 4 + 2 = 14 — the 1 bits add up to 14.
In short: 14 ÷ 2 = 7 r 0 → 7 ÷ 2 = 3 r 1 → 3 ÷ 2 = 1 r 1 → 1 ÷ 2 = 0 r 1 → read bottom-up: 1110₂
