Default decimal to binary conversion

How do I convert a decimal number 23.125 to binary?


What do you mean by "binary"?

Do you mean 10111.001 for 23.125?

If so, what do you want for 24.05?

Ostensibly, it is 11000.000011001100(1100)... (repeating the last 4 bits).
0.05 cannot be represented exactly in binary.

Or do you really mean that you want the 64-bit binary floating-point
representation?

If so, hex representation might be best; for example, &h40380CCC,CCCCCCCD
for 23.05.
