Converting Decimal to Binary – Decimal 46

Starting Value / Remaining Value | Divide by 2, Get Remainder | Remainder
46 | 46 / 2 = 23, Remainder 0 | 0
23 | 23 / 2 = 11, Remainder 1 | 1
11 | 11 / 2 = 5, Remainder 1 | 1
5 | 5 / 2 = 2, Remainder 1 | 1
2 | 2 / 2 = 1, Remainder 0 | 0
1 | 1 / 2 = 0, Remainder 1 | 1

Starting Value / Remaining Value | Divide by 2, Get Remainder | Remainder
Quotient = 0  All done! | Read numbers from  bottom    to top → | 1 0 1 1 1 0
So Decimal 46 Equals Binary 101110
