Question

In binary, there's just no numeral that represents that value "3."
True
False

Answer 1

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

In binary, each digit can only have a value of 0 or 1. When counting in binary, the numbers progress as follows:

0, 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000, 1001, ...

So the binary numeral for 3 is 11, since it represents the value of one "two" plus one "one." Similarly, the binary numeral for 4 is 100, since it represents the value of one "four" and zero "twos" and zero "ones."

In this way, any positive integer can be represented in binary using combinations of the binary numerals for 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and so on.
