Decimal Numbers
Slide subtitle or context (optional)...
- ●Base-10 system uses digits 0–9
- ●Each position is a power of 10 (e.g., 100s, 10s, 1s)
- ●Example: 345 = 3×100 + 4×10 + 5×1
- ●Place value increases left to right
Year 8 Computer Science Revision Guide2 / 10
Binary Numbers
Slide subtitle or context (optional)...
- ●Base-2 system uses only 0 and 1
- ●Each digit is a bit (binary digit)
- ●Place values are powers of 2 (e.g., 8, 4, 2, 1)
- ●Example: 1011 = 8 + 0 + 2 + 1 = 11

Binary to Decimal Conversion
Slide subtitle or context (optional)...
- ●Write down binary place values
- ●Add values where bits are 1
- ●Example: 1101 = 8 + 4 + 0 + 1 = 13
- ●Practice: Convert 1010 to decimal
- ●Answer: 10
- ●Try 1111 (Answer: 15)

Hexadecimal
Slide subtitle or context (optional)...
- ●Base-16 system uses digits 0–9 and A–F
- ●A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14, F=15
- ●Used in computing for compact data
- ●Example: 1A in hex = 26 in decimal
Year 8 Computer Science Revision Guide5 / 10
Binary and Hexadecimal
Slide subtitle or context (optional)...
- ●4 binary bits = 1 hex digit
- ●Example: 1101 (binary) = D (hex)
- ●Easier to read and write than long binary
- ●Convert 1010 to hex (Answer: A)
- ●Convert 1111 to hex (Answer: F)
- ●Convert B to binary (Answer: 1011)
