4 bit and 8 bit Binary Worksheets

(0)
These are converting Binary to Decimal and Decimal to Binary. Also included are the teacher answer sheets and as these worksheets randomly generate the questions (and answers) whenever you make a change to a blank cell on the work sheet, these can be used to generate different versions of the quiz which students can self mark very easily (I stick the answers to different versions on the walls of the classroom for students to self check) My resources vision: As with all of my resources, a full answer key is included to absolutely<strong> minimise teacher prep time</strong>. Please comment with any feedback, suggestions or improvements!
