What is Binary Arithmetic?

Binary arithmetic operations follow identical principles to decimal arithmetic but operate exclusively on base-2 bits with carries and borrows occurring at powers of 2.

Formula & Step-by-Step Calculation

0+0=0, 0+1=1, 1+0=1, 1+1=10₂ (carry 1)

Rules of binary addition and half-adder logic.

Worked Step-by-Step Examples

Example 1

Add binary 1101 (13) + 1011 (11)

Solution: 11000₂ (24₁₀)
• 1+1=0 (c1), 1+0+1=0 (c1), 1+1+0=0 (c1), 1+1=11 ⟹ 11000
