Decimal Number System.

A number system which uses digits from 0 to 9 to represent a number with base 10 is the decimal
system number. In the decimal number system, the numbers are represented with base 10. The way of
denoting the decimal numbers with base 10 is also termed as decimal notation. This number system is
widely used in computer applications. It is also called the base-10 number system which consists of 10
digits, such as, 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. Each digit in the decimal system has a position and every digit is ten
times more significant than the previous digit. Suppose, 25 is a decimal number, then 2 is ten times
more than 5. Some examples of decimal numbers are:-

(12)10, (345)10, (119)10, (200)10, (313.9)10

Hexadecimal Number System

The hexadecimal number system is a type of number system, that has a base value equal to 16. It is also
pronounced sometimes as ‘hex’. Hexadecimal numbers are represented by only 16 symbols. These
symbols or values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E and F. Each digit represents a decimal value.

Binary number System

A binary number system is one of the four types of number system. In computer applications, where
binary numbers are represented by only two symbols or digits, i.e. 0 (zero) and 1(one). The binary
numbers here are expressed in the base-2 numeral system. Each digit in this system is said to be a bit.
The binary system is applied internally by almost all latest computers and computer-based devices
because of its direct implementation in electronic circuits using logic gates. Every digit is referred to as
a bit. 

Octal number System

A number system which has its base as ‘eight’ is called an Octal number system. It uses numbers from 0
to 7. The octal numbers, in the number system, are usually represented by binary numbers when they
are grouped in pairs of three. For example, an octal number 128 is expressed as 0010102 in the binary
system, where 1 is equivalent to 001 and 2 is equivalent to 010.
