Convert 55990 to Binary

Now you already know the most important thing:

1101101010110110₁₀ equals 55990₂ if unsigned.

If 55990 in binary is signed such as with two’s complement, then the binary code has a number of trailing zeroes, e.g. 0001101101010110110 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 55990 signed using two’s complement, will start with one or more 1’s, but the exact code for -55990 decimal depends on the signed number representation system and number of bits available.

Here you can convert binary to decimal.
