Anyone knows how to Convert from Decimal to Binary?

I need to:

1. Express the sum of 257 and 431 in decimal form.

2. Convert the two numbers 257 and 431 into their binary representations.

3. Add the two binary numbers from part 2.

4. Show that the decimal version of your answer from part 3 is the same as your answer from part 1.

thanks!

Converting Decimal to binary is simple.

Divide the original number by 2, writing any remainder (1 or 0) to the right of the divide. Repeat until there is nothing left.

For example, 15 base 10 into binary: divide 13 by 2, get a 6 with remainder of 1. Divide 6 by 2, get 3 with a remainder of 0, divide 3 by 2, get 1 with a remainder of 1. Divide 1 by 2, get 0 with a remainder of 1. Take the remainders from bottom up and you get 1100.
