Binary Numbers (5 Questions)In a certain code, the symbol for 0 (zero) is. * and that for 1 is $. The numb.:rs greater than 1 are to be written only by using the two symbols given above. The value of the symbol for 1 doubles itself every time it shifts one place to the left.(For example, 4 is written as $**; and; 3 is written as $$)How to solve these type of questions?

We are giving the binary number codes. So if we are taking any ordinary number we can change ordinary to binery form using L.C.M process.
Suppose I take 10,
The binary number for 10 is 1010, so 10 is written as $*S*
Similarly we can change any of the number.

1st one has to know about the binary codde for all numbers.

For 1-1
      2-10
      3-11
      4-100
      5-101
      6-110
      7-111
      8-1000 and so on. This can be calculated by 8 4 2 1 method. That is If you want to make 8, put 0 for 4 2 1 and 1 for 8. Similarly to make 7, put 0 for 8 and 1 for 4 2 1 and sum it up and see, 7 will come.

Here they said to represent 1 as $ and 0 as *. So replace the ones and zeros with the appropriate symbol.

According to my view any number can be changed to binary form using 1's and
0's.

From the problem they had given that 0 is represented as * and 1 is
represented as $. so, if we want to represent the numbers in binary form then we
have to use 421 code, 8421 code and so on, it means if we want to represent 11
then it may be represented as "$*$$"

I have just represented my view.
