Detailed explanation-1: -An IP address is a thirty-two-bit binary number. The thirty two bits are separated into four groups of eight bits called octets . However, an IP address is represented as a dotted decimal number (for example: 205.57. 32.9).
Detailed explanation-2: -Here are steps on how to convert a decimal IP address to its binary form, without memorization. In order to remember these values start with the number 1, go from right to left, and double that number seven times. For example, start with 1 on the right side. For your next number, double the 1 (1 x 2 = 2).
Detailed explanation-3: -An IP address is typically written in decimal digits, formatted as four 8-bit fields separated by periods. Each 8-bit field represents a byte of the IP address. This form of representing the bytes of an IP address is often referred to as the dotted-decimal format.
