3042₁₀ = 101111100010₂
Decimal 3042 = 101111100010 Binary

Any integer can be written as sum of potencies to the power of 2, known as binary code.

Here’s the proof that 101111100010 is the correct result:

1×2^11 + 0x2^10 + 1×2^9 + 1×2^8 + 1×2^7 + 1×2^6 + 1×2^5 + 0x2^4 + 0x2^3 + 0x2^2 + 1×2^1 + 0x2^0 = 3042

Convert 3042 to Binary

Now you already know the most important thing:

101111100010₁₀ equals 3042₂ if unsigned.

If 3042 in binary is signed such as with two’s complement, then the binary code has a number of trailing zeroes, e.g. 000101111100010 in which the leftmost bit is the sign bit, followed perhaps by more trailing 0’s, and then by magnitude bits.

The reason to have the binary signed is to accommodate for negative numbers, in which case the sign bit is 1 in our example.

Therefore, minus 3042 signed using two’s complement, will start with one or more 1’s, but the exact code for -3042 decimal depends on the signed number representation system and number of bits available.

Here you can convert binary to decimal.
