You can convert a decimal number to binary by drawing a simple chart, and then performing repeated subtraction.

1.Make a two-row chart. The top row should list all of the numbers that are powers of two, up to but not greater than the number you are trying to convert. (Powers of two are 2^0 = 1, 2^1 = 2, 2^2 = 4, 2^3 = 8, and so forth.)The numbers should be listed from right to left.

2.Find the greatest number in the chart (in this case it is 128), and write a 1 below it in the second row. Then, subtract that number from the number you are trying to convert.

3. Find the greatest number in the chart that is not greater than the new number you calculated in Step 2, and continue this process until all the columns are filled with 1s or 0s.
