Conversion of Binary number to Base 4 system

We all know that, = . In other words, single digit in base 4 can be represented using 2 digits in base 2. Base 2 has digits 0 and 1. Similarly base 4 has digits 0, 1, 2 and 3. Algorithm for Binary to Base 4 Conversion

1. Beginning from right, group the digits of binary (base 2) number into group of two.
2. Write the base 4 equivalent value corresponding to the each group.

Example: Convert the binary number 1010 to base 4. Therefore the base 4 equivalent of binary number 1010 is 22. Now, Algorithm for Base 4 to Binary Conversion: Represent each digit in the base 4 number using 2 bits. Example: Convert the base 4 number 22 to binary. Therefore the binary equivalent of base 4 number 22 is 1010. Practice Questions: (1) Convert the binary number 111000 to base 4. (2) Convert the binary number 100100 to base 4.
