Binary Division
The method followed in binary division is also similar to that adopted in decimal system. However, in the case of binary numbers, the operation is simpler because the quotient can have either 1 or 0 depending upon the divisor.
The table for binary division is
| - | 1 | 0 |
| 1 | 1 | Meaning less |
| 0 | 0 | Meaning less |
The binary division operation is illustrated by the following examples:
Evaluate:
(i) 11001 ÷ 101
Solution:
101) 11001 (101
101
101
101
Hence the quotient is 101
(ii) 11101.01 ÷ 1100
Solution:
1100) 11101.01 (10.01111100
10101
1100
0010
1100
1100
1100
Hence the quotient is 10.0111
(iii) 10110.1 ÷ 1101
Solution:
1101) 10110.1 (1.1011101
10011
1101
11000
1101
1011
Thus the quotient is 1.101 upto 3 places of binary point and the remainder is 1.011.
(iv) 101.11 ÷ 111
Solution:
111) 101.11 (0.1111 1
10 01
1 11
10
Thus the quotient is 0.11 upto 2 places of binary point and the remainder is 0.1.
