Which is the best answer to explain why computers use binary.

• Computers use circuits and logic gates. 1 or 0 represents on and off, which is true or false.

• Computers understand binary easier than human language so it can compile code faster.

• Computers have 8 states which are the bit values of binary to work out numbers.

• Computers use true or false statements and that is what 1 and 0 is.
