0 and 1 Binary Calculator: Instant Base-2 Math

Perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in binary (base-2) — using only 0s and 1s. Perfect for computer science, digital logic, programming, or learning how computers think.

Example: 101 + 11 = 1000 | 110 × 10 = 1100 | 111 ÷ 10 = 11.1.

Binary Arithmetic Rules

Addition

0+0=0 | 0+1=1 | 1+0=1 | 1+1=10 (carry 1)

Subtraction

Borrow like decimal: 10 - 1 = 1
101 - 011 = 010

Multiplication

0×anything=0 | 1×anything=itself
Shift & add

Division

Long division with 0s and 1s
111 ÷ 10 = 11.1

Example: 101 + 11 = ?

StepCarryBitsResult
11 + 10 (carry 1)
210 + 1 + 10 (carry 1)
311 + 0 + 10 (carry 1)
410 + 0 + 11

Frequently Asked Questions

101 in binary is 1×4 + 0×2 + 1×1 = 5 in decimal. Each binary digit represents a power of 2, read right to left starting at 2⁰.

Computer transistors have exactly two reliable electrical states: on (1) or off (0). Binary is the simplest, most error-resistant way to represent and switch between those two states, which is why all digital hardware is built around it.

Multiply each digit by its place value (powers of 2: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16...) from right to left, then add the results. For example, 1101 = 1×8 + 1×4 + 0×2 + 1×1 = 8+4+0+1 = 13.

Yes — digits after a binary point represent negative powers of 2 (½, ¼, ⅛...). For example, 10.1 in binary equals 2 + 0.5 = 2.5 in decimal.

These are bitwise logic operations compared bit by bit. AND returns 1 only when both bits are 1. OR returns 1 when at least one bit is 1. XOR (exclusive or) returns 1 only when the bits differ. They're fundamental to digital logic circuits and programming.

Two's complement is the standard way computers represent negative numbers in binary. It's calculated by inverting all bits (NOT) and adding 1. This lets hardware use the same addition circuit for both addition and subtraction.

Group the binary digits into sets of 4 (from right to left, padding with zeros if needed), then convert each group to its hex digit (0-9, A-F). For example, 1101 groups as 1101 = D in hex.

Left shift moves all bits left and fills with zeros, which multiplies the number by 2 for each position shifted. Right shift moves bits right, dividing by 2 for each position (discarding the remainder). These are much faster than multiplication/division in low-level code.

This calculator supports up to 32-bit unsigned binary numbers, meaning values from 0 to 4,294,967,295 (2³² − 1). Numbers or results beyond that range will overflow and wrap around, matching how 32-bit computer registers behave.
