No, I didn’t just type a bunch of random 0’s and 1’s above. I actually typed a sentence into a binary translator site and had it converted to binary. Our number system (Base 10), uses 10 digits…0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. In the binary number system (Base 2), there are only 2 digits…0s and 1s. It’s a little confusing at first, but once you get the hang of it, it can actually be quite fun!
Spark your math thinking!
- Set up your math mini spark recording page: #43: Exploring Binary Numbers
- Watch this Binary Number System vide to get started. Take notes along with the teacher. Pause the video as needed.
3. Use the Binary Translator site to figure out what all those 1s and 0s at the top of this post mean. record the answer on your recording sheet.
4. Then come up with your own sentence to translate to 1s and 0s and put it on your recording sheet.
5. Watch this video where Instagram’s Kevin Systrom explains how binary numbers play into pixels and images. There’s a LOT of information in this video and it goes fast. Feel free pause it, re-watch it, etc.
6. There are 10 types of people in this world…those who understand binary and those who don’t. Hopefully after completing this math mini spark you’ll “get” the joke! 🙂
Share your math mini spark recording page with your teacher/EY coordinator.
I researched binary numbers on
http://www.mathsisfun.com/binary-number-system.html
I learned that the binary numbers go 0, 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000, and so on! I’ll use 10 as an example of how they work: 0 is in the ones place so do 1×0. 1 is in the twos place so do 2×1. Now add them up to get 2!
Now let’s do a bigger number: 1101.101 do (1×1) + (2×0) + (4×1) + (8×1) + (1/2×1) + (1/4×0) + (1/8×1). This may seem hard, but the answer is 13.625.
The sentence was, “Math Minutes are really cool!”
01001101 01100001 01110100 01101000 00100000 01001101 01101001 01101110 01110101 01110100 01100101 01110011 00100000 01100001 01110010 01100101 00100000 01110010 01100101 01100001 01101100 01101100 01111001 00100000 01100011 01101111 01101111 01101100 00100001
In the video I learned how pixels work. I’d already had a basic idea, but this made it easier to understand. And those were my math minutes!
I learned that binary is 2 digits that can make a sentence and you cand do it for both numbers. You can multiply with them.
I figured that to.I learned that binary text by putting the bases which is 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9 and those can make words like on the binary translator it tells you what the numbers mean which it says like Elliot said “math minutes are really cool!”
If you go to binary translator and type the numbers you will get Math minutes is cool.
Is this right
100010001000100100100100010
1000101000101000010
Zack-It is a bunch of 0s and 1s, but the order of them does matter when you’re trying to say something. For example, what you typed translated to “”IQB Type in a sentence at http://binarytranslator.com and then select the Text to Binary to copy and paste all the 0s and 1s.
I used mathisfun.com and learned that when you get bigger in binary numbers you add ones to the left and and zeroes or ones to the right. Like this 0 is 0, 1 is 1, 10 is 2 and eleven is 3. To get bigger you start back at zero and then add a 1 to the end to get 100.
I found out my name on the binary website:
01001011 01100001 01110100 01100101=Kate
Nice Kate! 🙂 Kind of crazy that it takes all those 0s and 1s to spell your name!
Binary Numbers are super rad! I learned that this is the code laptops use!
My sentence is 01010000 01100001 01101110 01100100 01100001 01110011 00100000 01100101 01100001 01110100 00100000 01101111 01101100 01101001 01110110 01100101 00100000 01110000 01101001 01100101. Try and figure out what it means.
In the video that is about Instagram I learned what resolution is. It is the dimension by witch you can measure how many pixels that are on a screan.
Math minutes are really cool! My name in binary is 01000010 01110010 01100101 01101110 01100100 01100001 01101110. I got this alphabet from convertbinary.com. Has anyone noticed that all the 8 digit number codes start with 0?
I learned binary code from my cousin and my grandma who was a math teacher for many many years. I actually have a shirt that has the joke.
Wow I did not know that one pixel is represented by a bunch of smaller pixels.
http://wonderopolis.org/wonder/how-does-a-calculator-work/
Funny! I recently read that article and it is about calculators and computers. Did you know that calculators use the binary system to count!
It translates to “Math Minutes are really cool!” I had never heard of the “binary number code” before. My name in binary code is—0100 0001 0100 0010 0100 0010 0111 1001
It would be cool really cool if you had secret messages that you needed to send, and out sent it with binary! Now I know a way to trick people into thinking they are just numbers
This was a tricky math minute but I learned that pixels are in numbers
Fun Math = 01000110 01110101 01101110 00100000 01101101 01100001 01110100 01101000 00001010
I get the joke 10 is 2 in binary.
I figured out that it translates to ‘Math Minutes are really cool!’
Here is mine to translate: 01001101 01100001 01110100 01101000 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01100110 01110101 01101110 00100001 11110000 10011111 10011000 10000000
I leraned that the Binary number system only made up with 0s and 1s.
To show how a number is binary, you just have to put a little two on the bottom.
Computers use binary numbers. These were some things I didn’t know and this is my binary:
01001001 00100000 01110111 01100001 01101110 01110100 00100000 01110100 01101111 00100000 01100111 01101111 00100000 01110100 01101111 01110100 01101000 01100101 00100000 01101101 01100001 01110100 01101000 00100000 01101101 01101001 01101110 01110101 01110100 01100101 00100000 01110011 01100101 01101101 01101001 01101110 01100001 01110010 00100001 00100001 00110001 .

The sentence: “Math minutes are really cool!”
Pixels only range from 0-255. 0 is dark and 255 is the color.
The number 255 also only has 8 bits or 1 byte.
That video was awesome. I learned so much.
This is so cool! 01010100 01101000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01110011 01101111 00100000 01100011 01101111 01101111 01101100 00100001

I learned that pixels are acculturation made of blue red and green colors instead of the colors you a actually see.

Can anyone figure that out?
I leaned that binary numbers only consist of 0’s and 1’s and that converting decimals to binary makes you look for 2 to every power and you choose which one is below but closest. Then you see how many 8’s 16’s 4’s 2’s and1’s you have and put it in numerical order. Also my name in binary is, 0100010 01110110 01100001 00100000 00001101 = Evan
can anyone figure this out?
01110100 01101000 01101001 01110011 0010000 01101101 01100001 01110100 01101000 00100000 01101101 01101001 01101110 01110101 01110100 01101000 00100000 01101101 01101001 0110111 01110101 01110100 01100101 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01100001 01110111 0110101 0111011 01101111 01101101 01100101 00001101
I get the joke 10 is 2 in binary
01001101 01111001 00100000 01101110 01100001 01101101 01100101 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01001100 01101001 01101100 01111001 00101110 can anyone guess what that means?
