1+1 Binary Addition
In the binary number system, addition is performed using the same principles as in the decimal system. However, since binary only uses two digits, 0 and 1, the rules for addition are slightly different.
Binary Addition Rules
When adding two binary numbers, the following rules apply:
- 0 + 0 = 0
- 0 + 1 = 1
- 1 + 0 = 1
- 1 + 1 = 10
Note that in the last rule, the result 10 is a binary number, where 1 is the carry and 0 is the result.
1+1 in Binary
Now, let's look at the simple addition problem of 1+1 in binary.
In binary, the number 1 is represented as 0001. To perform the addition, we need to add 0001 to itself.
0001
+ 0001
------
0010
As we can see, the result of the addition is 0010, which is the binary representation of the decimal number 2.
Conclusion
In this article, we have seen how to perform binary addition, specifically the simple problem of 1+1. Understanding binary addition is essential for computer systems, as it is used to perform arithmetic and logical operations.
