Which of these is the correct sequence for the place values for binary numbers?
A
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128

1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16
C
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
D
0, 1
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The same place-value rules apply to the binary system: the right-most place just before what is called the binary point in a binary number is the one’s place, the next place to the left is the two’s place, the next place to the left of that is the two times two or four’s place, and so on.

Detailed explanation-2: -The numbers from 0 to 10 are thus in binary 0, 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000, 1001, and 1010.

Detailed explanation-3: -Adding 0 and 1, we get 1 (no carry). That means the last digit of the answer will be one. Then we move one digit to the left: adding 1 and 1 we get 10. Hence, the answer is 101.
