Today, we will start with binary addition. Can anyone tell me how binary addition differs from decimal addition?
In binary, you only have two digits, 0 and 1, right?
Exactly! Instead of carrying every time you reach 10, in binary, you carry when you reach 2. Letβs look at some addition rules: 0 + 0 = 0, 1 + 0 = 1, and 1 + 1 = 10. Can you guess what happens when you add 1011 and 1101?
Doesnβt that equal 11000?
Good job! Now, letβs summarize again: remember the carry in binary when it goes beyond 1. That's crucial! Any questions?

Next, weβll cover binary subtraction. Who remembers how to approach it?
Itβs like decimal subtraction, but we also have to borrow when we need a higher value, right?
Correct! For example, if you subtract 1011 from 1101, what do you get?
I think itβs 010?
Thatβs right! And remember, borrowing in binary involves taking from the next left bit. Always ensure that you understand the borrowing process!

Letβs shift to binary multiplication now. How do you think it compares to decimal multiplication?
Is it similar? Like multiplying each bit and then adding?
Exactly! For instance, if we multiply 101 by 11, we treat it just like decimal multiplication. Who wants to walk us through it?
First, we multiply 101 by 1, getting 101. Then we shift left and multiply again by 1, giving us 1010. Adding those gives 1111!
Fantastic! Always remember to align your partial products carefully. Any questions?

Lastly, weβll talk about binary division. How does it work?
It's like repeated subtraction, right? You just keep subtracting the divisor from the dividend?
You got it! For example, if we divide 1101 by 11, how would we approach that?
We can subtract 11 from 1101 repeatedly to get the quotient.
Correct! **Divide** and **conquer** is the name of the game here. Remember, any questions about the process?
Introduction & Overview

Quick Overview
Standard
In this section, we explore basic arithmetic operations performed in binary systems, which are essential for computer sciences. The section includes detailed processes for binary addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, illustrated with examples to provide a solid understanding.
Detailed
In the binary number system, arithmetic operations are performed using specific rules that differ from those of the decimal system. This section covers the four main arithmetic operations:
- Addition: Similar to decimal addition, but follows these rules:
- 0 + 0 = 0
- 1 + 0 = 1
-
1 + 1 = 10 (which carries over 1)
For example, adding 1011 and 1101 results in 11000. - Subtraction: It resembles decimal subtraction and involves borrowing when necessary. For instance, subtracting 1011 from 1101 yields 010.
- Multiplication: This operation parallels its decimal counterpart. Each bit of one binary number multiplies with each bit of the other, and results are summed. An illustration of multiplying 101 by 11 shows how to obtain the product 1111.
- Division: It involves repeated subtraction and shifting to divide one binary number by another.
These operations are foundational in computer programming and hardware design, as all higher-level arithmetic is based on these binary principles.

Addition:
Binary addition is similar to decimal addition, except it follows these rules:
- 0 + 0 = 0
- 1 + 0 = 1
- 1 + 1 = 10 (carry 1)
Example: Add 1011 and 1101.
1011 + 1101 ------- 11000
Detailed Explanation
When we add binary numbers, we follow a set of simple rules. First, the sum of two 0's is 0. If you have a 1 and a 0, the sum equals 1. However, when you add two 1's, it results in 10, where 0 is the sum at that position, and you carry over 1 to the next higher bit position. For example, when adding 1011 (which is 11 in decimal) and 1101 (which is 13 in decimal), we line them up and start from the rightmost side. Adding the bits, we compute 1+1 to get 0 and carry 1 to the next addition, resulting in 11000 (which is 24 in decimal).
Examples & Analogies
Think of binary addition like a team of people counting items. One person can count only one item at a time. If they both shout βoneβ at the same time, they have to alert a manager (carry over) that they need help to count how many items they actually have, which means they need to pass that information to the next higher count.

Subtraction:
Binary subtraction works like decimal subtraction, with borrowing when necessary.
Example: Subtract 1011 from 1101.
1101 - 1011 ------- 010
Detailed Explanation
In binary subtraction, similar to decimal subtraction, you might need to βborrowβ when the top digit is smaller than the bottom digit. For instance, when subtracting 1011 from 1101, we begin at the rightmost side. The first bit of 1101 (1) minus the first bit of 1011 (1) gives us 0. But if you look to the next bits, you may find that 0 (from the first number) needs 1 to be taken from the next left side, creating a need to borrow, which is like saying, 'I need more items from you to complete my count'. In the end, this gives us 010, which is 2 in decimal.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine you are at a checkout counter, and you want to buy 1101 candies, but you only have 1011 coins. You realize you need to borrow some coins from your friend to afford all the candies. When you borrow those coins, you can complete your purchase despite not having enough initially.

Multiplication:
Binary multiplication is similar to decimal multiplication. Multiply each bit of one binary number with each bit of the other and sum the results.
Example: Multiply 101 by 11.
101 Γ 11 ------- 101 + 1010 ------- 1111
Detailed Explanation
In binary multiplication, we treat each bit like a decimal multiplication but with much simpler rules. When you multiply, you take each bit from the multiplicand and multiply it with each bit of the multiplier. For instance, to multiply 101 by 11, we start by multiplying 101 by the last bit of 11 (which is 1). Then we write 101 down. Next, we multiply 101 by the next bit of 11 (which is again 1), but we place it one position to the left, equivalent to multiplying by 10 in decimal. Finally, we add these two results together, yielding 1111 (which is 7 in decimal).
Examples & Analogies
Imagine you are making sandwiches. If you have 101 pieces of bread and want to make 11 sandwiches, you first take 101 pieces to make the first sandwich. Then you realize that you can rebuild one more sandwich with the bread pieces left. So, by continuing this way and combining your efforts, you find out how many sandwiches you can actually complete.
Binary Division

Division:
Binary division involves dividing the dividend by the divisor, with repeated subtraction and shifting.
Detailed Explanation
In binary division, the process of division is analogous to long division in decimal. You keep subtracting the divisor from the dividend and adjusting the quotient by shifting left each time until the remainder is less than the divisor. This might seem tricky, but essentially, itβs about determining how many times the divisor can fit into parts of the dividend while keeping track of what remains. This repeated process continues until you can no longer subtract without going negative.
Examples & Analogies
Think of it like trying to divide a bunch of apples among friends. If you have 8 apples and want to divide them equally among 2 friends, you keep giving apples until you can no longer give more without running out. Every time you give an apple, you keep track of how many you have left until all apples are divided appropriately.
