Binary to Base-12 Converter
Ever stared at a string of 0s and 1s and thought, "What on earth does this mean?" Binary numbers can feel like a secret code only computers understand. But what if you could crack that code and translate it into something more human-friendly, like base-12? That's where our Binary to Base-12 Converter comes in! Whether you're a math enthusiast, a student, or just someone curious about number systems, this tool transforms those confusing binary digits into base-12 with just a click. No math degree required—just type, convert, and voilà! Say goodbye to binary headaches and hello to a world where numbers make sense.
Enter a binary number to convert it to base-12.
How It Works
Our tool takes a binary number (a sequence of 0s and 1s) and converts it into base-12 in two simple steps:
- Binary to Decimal: The binary number is converted to its decimal equivalent by adding up the values of each digit, where each 1 represents a power of 2.
- Decimal to Base-12: The decimal number is then converted to base-12 by repeatedly dividing it by 12 and using the remainders to form the base-12 result.
