Let's convert the decimal number 2587 to binary without using a calculator:

Step 1: Divide by 2

Start by dividing 2587 by 2:

2587 ÷ 2 = 1293 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 2: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (1293) by 2:

1293 ÷ 2 = 646 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 3: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (646) by 2:

646 ÷ 2 = 323 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 4: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (323) by 2:

323 ÷ 2 = 161 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 5: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (161) by 2:

161 ÷ 2 = 80 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 6: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (80) by 2:

80 ÷ 2 = 40 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 7: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (40) by 2:

40 ÷ 2 = 20 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 8: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (20) by 2:

20 ÷ 2 = 10 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 9: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (10) by 2:

10 ÷ 2 = 5 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 10: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (5) by 2:

5 ÷ 2 = 2 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 11: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (2) by 2:

2 ÷ 2 = 1 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 12: Final actions

The Quotient is less than 2 (1), so we will transfer it to the beginning of the number as a reminder.

Step 13: Write the Remainders in Reverse Order

Now, write down the remainders obtained in reverse order:

101000011011

So, the binary representation of the decimal number 2587 is 101000011011.
