To convert a binary number to decimal (base 10), we multiply each digit in the binary number by 2 raised to the power of its position and then add up the results.
In this case, the binary number is 10010.
The positions of the digits from right to left are: 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.
Using the formula: (1 * 2^4) + (0 * 2^3) + (0 * 2^2) + (1 * 2^1) + (0 * 2^0)
Calculating each term: 16 + 0 + 0 + 2 + 0
The result is 18.
Therefore, 10010 in base 2 is equal to 18 in base 10.
