I have the number 4.281.000 miliards ,how many bits are needed to represent this number in binary? just tell me where to start ? :)

Well, with 1 bit, you can represent 0 and 1. With 2 bit, you can represent 0-3. The formula should be something like 2^n-1, where n is the number of bits needed. So you either do that calculation, or you do it manually by increasing the number of bits you have until you can represent the number you want.
