Quick answer

Valid input contains only 0 and 1 digits.

What this tells you

  • Valid input contains only 0 and 1 digits.
  • Results show both binary and decimal forms.
  • Division returns integer quotient in this tool.

How to Use

  1. 1Enter binary value A and binary value B.
  2. 2Choose operation (+, -, ×, ÷).
  3. 3Calculate to see binary and decimal outputs.

How It Works

Formula

Convert binary inputs to decimal -> apply operation -> convert result back to binary

The tool validates binary strings, performs arithmetic, then returns both representations.

Calculation note: values are processed in the order shown above, using the current input units.

Common mistakes

  • Entering non-binary digits
  • Expecting floating-point division output in integer-quotient mode
  • Confusing signed and unsigned binary interpretation

Frequently Asked Questions
