Correct Option: C
  1. Convert the binary number \(101_{two}\) to decimal: \(101_{two} = 1 \times 2^2 + 0 \times 2^1 + 1 \times 2^0 = 4 + 0 + 1 = 5\)
  2. Cube the decimal equivalent: \(5^3 = 5 \times 5 \times 5 = 125\)
  3. Convert the result (125) back to binary.
    • \(125 \div 2 = 62\) remainder 1
    • \(62 \div 2 = 31\) remainder 0
