Convert 42579 to Binary

Now you already know the most important thing:

1010011001010011₁₀ equals 42579₂ if unsigned.

If 42579 in binary is signed such as with two’s complement, then the binary code has a number of trailing zeroes, e.g. 0001010011001010011 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 42579 signed using two’s complement, will start with one or more 1’s, but the exact code for -42579 decimal depends on the signed number representation system and number of bits available.

Here you can convert binary to decimal.
