Answer:
Unit 1 Section 2 : Adding and Subtracting Binary Numbers
It is possible to add and subtract binary numbers in a similar way to base 10 numbers.
For example, 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 in base 10 becomes 1 + 1 + 1 = 11 in binary.
In the same way, 3 – 1 = 2 in base 10 becomes 11 – 1 = 10 in binary.
When you add and subtract binary numbers you will need to be careful when 'carrying' or 'borrowing' as these will take place more often.
Key Addition Results for Binary Numbers
1 + 0 = 1
1 + 1 = 10
1 + 1 + 1 = 11
Key Subtraction Results for Binary Numbers
1 – 0 = 1
10 – 1 = 1
11 – 1 = 10
Example 1
Calculate, using binary numbers:
(a) 111 + 100
(b) 101 + 110
(c) 1111 + 111
Example 2
Calculate the binary numbers:
(a) 111 – 101
(b) 110 – 11
(c) 1100 – 101
Answer:
101010
Explanation:
In binary number
0+0 = 0
1+0 = 1
Similarly,
0+1 =1
1+1 = 10 ( here 0 is written in the same column and 1 is carry over )
1+1+1 = 10+1= 11
Therefore,
11111 + 1011 = 101010
