What kind of ‘base’ system is binary known as?
A
Base 12
B
Base 8
C
Base 2
D
Base 10
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -binary number system, in mathematics, positional numeral system employing 2 as the base and so requiring only two different symbols for its digits, 0 and 1, instead of the usual 10 different symbols needed in the decimal system.

Detailed explanation-2: -In binary, base 2, there are only two digits (0 and 1), and each place is worth two times the place to its right. The subscript 2 on 11012 means the 1101 is in base 2. Numbers are normally written in base 10, so a subscript 10 is only used when needed for clarity.

Detailed explanation-3: -Binary Number System: According to digital electronics and mathematics, a binary number is defined as a number that is expressed in the binary system or base 2 numeral system. It describes numeric values by two separate symbols; 1 (one) and 0 (zero). The base-2 system is the positional notation with 2 as a radix.

Detailed explanation-4: -Binary Numbers But the binary number system has a base of 2 because all the digits are counted into two numbers are 0 and 1 due to this when we write the whole binary number system the bits place is executed from right to left and the value is two times like 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 etc.

Detailed explanation-5: -A base-2 representation of a number is also called a “binary” representation. The binary representation can also represent a large or small number conveniently in a form that is analogous to scientific notation, except that the exponent term is a power of 2 rather than 10.
