Objective: Convert Binary to Decimal

Procedure #1 Plug in the Binary Numbers and Add "s". Example: 00110110

32 + 16 + 4 + 2 = 54

Procedure #2 Shortcut

1. Start > Programs > Accessories > Calculator
2. View > Scientific
3. Click on the "Bin" radio Button (this stands for Binary)
4. Type in binary number
5. Click on the "Dec"radio button (number will be converted from Binary to decimal)

Objective: Convert Decimal to Binary

Procedure #1 Plug in 1's and 0's (yes and no respectively) going from left to right until you get the correct total. Example: 198

128s

128 + ? = 198 (yes). Place a 1 under 128s
128 + 64 + ? = 198 (yes). Place a 1 under 64s.
128 + 64 + 32 = 224 (this number is too high. Place a 0 ("no") under 32s)
128 + 64 + 16 = 208 (this number is too high. Place a 0 ("no") under 16s)
128 + 64 + 8 = 200 (this number is too high. Place a 0 ("no") under 8s)
128 + 64 + 4 + ? = 198 (yes) Place a 1 under 4s
128 + 64 + 4 + 2 = 198. You have your answer here. Place a 1 under 2s.
Since 128+64+4+2+1 = 199, go ahead and place a 0 under 1s.

Procedure #2 Shortcut

1. Start > Programs > Accessories > Calculator
2. View > Scientific
3. Click on the "Dec"radio button
4. Type in the number
5. Click on the "Bin" radio Button (number will be converted from Binary to decimal)
Note: The calculator may yield less than 8 numbers. For example, decimal 8 would yield a binary number of 1000. You would fill in your boxes going from right to left.

Objective: Determine if a host is local or remote

Boolean Math (ANDing)

1 + 1 = 1

"Yes, I will see you," says the computer.

0 + 1 = 0

"No, I won't see you," says the computer.

0 + 0 = 0

"No, I won't see you," says the computer.

Procedure #1 (given binary numbers)

Note: you can "AND" on the Scienfic calculator (add binary numbers) by using the "AND" key

Computer1 Octet / Field 1 Octet / Field 2 Octet / Field 3 Octet / Field 4
IP Address 10011001 10101010 00100101 10100011
Subnet Mask 11111111 11111111 00000000 00000000
ANDed 10011001 10101010 00000000 00000000

 

Computer2 Octet / Field 1 Octet / Field 2 Octet / Field 3 Octet / Field 4
IP Address 11011001 10101010 10101100 11101001
Subnet Mask 11111111 11111111 00000000 00000000
ANDed 11011001

Do the ANDed results match? No, you can stop immediately in ANDed result on Computer 2. Computer 2 is remote.

Procedure #2 (given decimal numbers)

How would question be asked if the numbers were in decimal?

Computer1 Octet 1 Octet 2 Octet 3 Octet 4
IP Address 153 170 37 163
Subnet Mask 255 255 0 0
ANDed 153 170 0 0

 

Computer2 Octet 1 Octet 2 Octet 3 Octet 4
IP Address 217 170 172 233
Subnet Mask 255 255 0 0
ANDed 217

Clearly the answer is - no! These two computers are not on the same network.
