I'm rubbish at mathematics. What's binary representation of 1564??? 10 pts 4 best answer!!!!!!?

The powers of 2 are : 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,...2048 is too big however 1024 fits in our number :1 and we maintain 1564-1024=540Next 512 fits in the remainder (540) :11 and 540-512=28 as remainderso 256,128,64,32 don't fit : 4 zero's110000Then 16 fits : 28-16=12 as remainder11000018 fits ; 12-8=4 as remainder110000114 fits : 4-4 = 0 as remainder11000011100 !!![ So the last two (2 and 1) don't fit ]
