CONTENT OF THE LESSON

LESSON 1 – INTRODUCTION

Binary numbers are composed of only 0 and 1, while decimal numbers are composed of digits from 0 to 9.

 

ACTIVITY 1 – CONVERSION OF BASE 10 TO BASE 2

Binary is a number system that represent a base 2 number system.

This means it only has two numbers: 0 and 1.

Relationship between decimal and binary is as follows:

0 = 0₂

1 = 1₂

2 = 10₂

3 = 11₂

4 = 100₂

5 = 101₂

6 = 110₂

7 = 111₂

8 = 1000₂

9 = 1001₂

10 = 1010₂

 

11 = 1011₂

12 = 1100₂

13 = 1101₂

14  = 1110₂

15 = 1111₂

16 = 10000₂

17 = 10001₂

18 = 10010₂

19 = 10011₂

20 = 10100₂

LESSON 3 – CONVERSION OF BASE 2 TO BASE 10 

ACTIVITY 1 – INTRODUCTION 

Decimal system is a number system that represent a 0 – 9 number system.

Relationship between binary and Decimal is as follows:

0₂ = 0

1₂ = 1

10₂ = 2

11₂ = 3

100₂ = 4

101₂ = 5

110₂ = 6

111₂ = 7

1000₂ = 8

1001₂ = 9

1010₂ = 10

 

1011₂ = 11

1100₂ = 12

1101₂ = 13

1110₂ = 14

1111₂ = 15

10000₂ = 16

10001₂ = 17

10010₂ = 18

10011₂ = 19

10100₂ = 20

 

WORKING EXAMPLE 1

1011₂

 

= 1 x 2³ + 0 x 2² + 1 x 2¹ + 1 x 2º

= 1 x 8 + 0 x 4 + 1 x 2 + 1 x 1

= 8 + 0 + 2 + 1

= 11

Therefore, 1011₂ = 11

 

WORKING EXAMPLE 2

1100₂

= 1 x 2³ + 1 x 2² + 0 x 2¹ + 0 x 2º

= 1 x 8 + 1 x 4 + 0 x 2 + 0 x 1

= 8 + 4 + 0 + 0

= 12

Therefore, 1100₂ = 12

 

WORKING EXAMPLE 3

1101₂

 

= 1 x 2³ + 1 x 2² + 0 x 2¹ + 1 x 2º

= 1 x 8 + 1 x 4 + 0 x 2 + 1 x 1

= 8 + 4 + 0 + 1

= 13

Therefore, 1101₂ = 13

 

WORKING EXAMPLE 4

11001₂

= 1 x 2^4 + 1 x 2³ + 0 x 2² + 0 x 2¹ + 1 x 2º

= 1 x 16 + 1 x 8 + 0 x 4 + 0 x 2 + 1 x 1

= 16 + 8 + 0 + 0 + 1

= 25

Therefore, 11001₂ = 25

 

WORKING EXAMPLE 5

1010110₂

 

= 1 x 2^6 + 0 x 2^5 + 1 x 2^4 + 0 x 2³ + 1 x 2² + 1 x 2¹ + 0 x 2º

= 1 x 64 + 0 x 32 + 1 x 16 + 0 x 8 + 1 x 4 + 1 x 2 + 0 x 1 = 64 + 0 + 16 + 0 + 4 + 2 + 0

= 86

Therefore, 1010110₂ = 86

 

ACTIVITY 2 – CLASS EXERCISE/ASSIGNMENT 

Convert the following to base 10,

1. 1111₂

2. 10111₂

3. 1001110₂

4. 10001001₂

 

LESSON 3 – CONTINUATION OF LESSON 2 (REVISION)

1. To introduce the lesson, the teacher revises the previous lesson. Based on this, he/she asks the pupils some questions;

2. Teacher organizes pupils in groups or pairs depending on the size of the class.

3. Teacher displays chart showing the relationship between binary and denary numbers.

 

4. Teacher lets pupils study the relationship between the two forms of number.

5. Teacher uses the chart and pupil’s responses to introduce the lesson and discuss the concept of binary system.

6. Teacher guides pupils to convert numbers in binary system to denary system and vice versa.

Pupil’s Activities – Convert numbers in binary system to other bases and vice versa.

7. Guides pupils to solve quantitative aptitude involving binary numbers system.

Pupil’s Activities – Solve quantitative aptitude involving binary number system.

8. Teacher summarizes each of the lesson on the board with appropriate lesson evaluation.
