Multiplication And Division In Base 2 JSS3 Mathematics Lesson Note

TOPIC: MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION IN BASE TWO

In multiplication, 0 x 0 = 0, 1 x 0 = 0, 1 x 1 = 1.

When there is a long multiplication of binary numbers, the principle of addition can be used to derive the answer. Under division, the principle of subtraction can be used.

Worked Examples:

1.         1110 x 111

Solution:

1.         1110

        X       110

                0000

                1110

              1110    

          1010100

2.         Multiply 11.01 by 1.1 in base two

 Solution:

      1101

      x 11

      1101

     1101      

 100.111

DIVISION IN BASE TWO

Example:

Divide 110010101 by 1111

Solution:

1100101012  ÷  11112 = 110112

Example:

Find the square root of 10100012

Solution:

First, convert it to base 10

10100012 = 1 x 2 6+ 0 + 1 x 2 4+ 0 + 0 + 0 + 1 x 20

     = 64 + 16 + 1 = 81 ten

The square root of 81 = 9ten

2 9 1

2 4 0

2 2 0

 2 1 1

    0    = 10012

EVALUATION

1.         10111÷110
2.         10001 x 11
