Check the binary conversion
Read 101010101001 from right to left using place values 1, 2, 4, 8 and successive powers of two. Keep the values whose bit is 1:
2048 + 512 + 128 + 32 + 8 + 1 = 2729
Check the hexadecimal conversion
10 × 16^2 + 10 × 16^1 + 9 × 16^0 = 2729
Hexadecimal uses A through F for digit values 10 through 15. These notations represent the same quantity; changing the base does not change the integer.

Digit sum and digital root of 2729
2729 contains 4 decimal digits. Its digit sum is 2 + 7 + 2 + 9 = 20.
- 2729: 2 + 7 + 2 + 9 = 20
- 20: 2 + 0 = 2
The digital root is 2. Reversing its digits gives 9272; it is not a decimal palindrome. Digit patterns depend on the notation being used.
Digital-root arithmetic always finishes at a single digit for a positive integer. Some numerology methods stop at 11, 22 or 33 instead; that is a separate interpretive convention.
Fractions and a worked comparison
As a fraction of 100, 2729/100 simplifies to 2729/100 by dividing both terms by their greatest common divisor, 1. Its decimal value is 27.29. Because the numerator exceeds the denominator, this value is greater than one.
The greatest common divisor of 2729 and 12 is 1. Their least common multiple is 32748. The identity GCD × LCM = 2729 × 12 = 32748 checks both results.
