Ok, here we go, this is my first attempt here, and if my calculations are correct my only attempt:

1) Binery numbers in to denery numbers

11101= 1 10 thousand, 1 1 thousand, 1 1 hundred, 0 tens and 1 unit. Answer= 111.01 thousand

10101= 1 ten thousand, 0 thousands, 1 1 hundred, 0 tens and 1 unit
Answer = 10.101 thousand

100001 = 1 million, 0 10 thousands, 0 thousands, 0 hundreds, 0 tens and 1 unit
answer = 1.10001 million

101010= 1 million, 0 10 thousands, 1 thousand, 0 hundreds, 1 ten and 0 units
answer= 1.01010 million

1110001= 1 10 million, 1 1 million, 1 10 thousand, 0 thousands, 0 hundreds, 0 tens, 0 units
answer= 11.1 million

Denery numbers in to binery numbers

19= 2.9
40= 8.0
89= 16. 9
37= 6.7
100= 40.0

Ok, is that right or what?

David

You managed to get every one wrong!!!!

I will give you a clue by doing the first from each question

11101 = 1 lot of 16's + 1 lot of 8's + 1 lot of 4's + no 2's + 1 unit = 29

Therefore binary number 11101 + 29 denary

19 = 1 lot of 16's + no 8's + no 4's + 1 lot of 2's and 1 unit

Therefore deary 19 = 10011 binary.

If you get the rest right my offer still stands on the ROIO.

Hmm, ok, i was propably using the wrong systems on the wrong questions or something, i dunno, or i just know **** all about maths/ computer systems e.t.c

Binery numbers:

10101= 1 lot of 16s, 0 8's, 1 lot of 4's, 0 2's and 1 unit
answer = 21

100001 = 1 lot of 32s, 0 16's, 0 8s, 0 4s, 0 2's and 1 unit
answer= 33

101010= 1 lot of 32s, 0 16's, 1 lot of 8s, 0 4's, 1 lot of 2 and no units
answer= 42

1110001= 1 lot of 64, 1 lot of 32, 1 lot of 16s, 0 8's, 0 4's, 0 2's and 1 unit
answer= 113

Strange thread? never, it began about... Actually this has never been linked in any way to Pink Floyd and just began as someone slaggging off the site. Oh well.

So, anyone got anything to say about truth again?
