In 100 words or less describe how place value is used in the binary number system.

How is it similar or different from the way place value is used in the base 10 number system?

Answer: "1,2,4,8"

Step-by-step explanation:

the binary number system only has two numbers which are 0 and 1. Each digit is called a bit. If you want to convert a number from binary to decimal, you can add up the places. Starting from the right the first digit has a value of 1, the second digit has a value of 2, the third digit has a value of 4 and so on. In a nutshell, you are basically multiplying 2 times for each place value.
