Describe the binary numbering system.

What will be an ideal response?


The binary numbering system uses only two digits (1 and 0), so it's used in computers. Computers, along with all electronic circuits, understand only two possible states: on and off. As far as computers are concerned, the number 1 represents on, and the number 0 represents off. Therefore, the computer converts decimal IP addresses into binary numbers.
