Here are some of the most important formulas for solving number system aptitude problems:
| S.No | To Calculate | Formulas |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | Decimal to Binary Conversion | To convert a decimal number to binary, divide the decimal number by 2 repeatedly and note the remainders in reverse order. |
| 2. | Binary to Decimal Conversion | To convert a binary number to decimal, multiply each digit by its positional value and sum the results. |
| 3. | Decimal to Hexadecimal Conversion | To convert a decimal number to hexadecimal, divide the decimal number by 16 repeatedly and note the remainders in reverse order. |
| 4. | Hexadecimal to Decimal Conversion | To convert a hexadecimal number to decimal, multiply each digit by its positional value and sum the results. |
| 5. | Binary Addition | Perform addition of binary numbers following the rules of binary addition: 0 + 0 = 0, 0 + 1 = 1, 1 + 0 = 1, 1 + 1 = 10 (carry 1, write 0). |
| 6. | Binary Subtraction | Perform subtraction of binary numbers following the rules of binary subtraction: 0 – 0 = 0, 1 – 0 = 1, 1 – 1 = 0, borrow from higher place value if necessary. |
| 7. | Binary Multiplication | Perform multiplication of binary numbers following the rules of binary multiplication: 0 × 0 = 0, 0 × 1 = 0, 1 × 0 = 0, 1 × 1 = 1. |
| 8. | Decimal to Binary Conversion | To convert a decimal number to binary, divide the decimal number by 2 repeatedly and note the remainders in reverse order. |
| 9. | Binary to Decimal Conversion | To convert a binary number to decimal, multiply each digit by its positional value and sum the results. |
| 10. | Decimal to Hexadecimal Conversion | To convert a decimal number to hexadecimal, divide the decimal number by 16 repeatedly and note the remainders in reverse order. |
