"2" is stored as

0000000000000010

"3" is stored as

0000000000000011

... and so forth. So, eventually our 16 bits of memory are completely filled with ones, meaning we can't make our number any larger. That happens to equal 65,535.

Basically when converting binary, the furthest right hand position is "1", then moving left the values of the position double. So, moving from left to right the positions are:

1
2
4
8
16
32
64
128
256
512
1024
2048
4096
8192
16384
32768

You can move left to right and if there is a 0, don't add that position's value, if there is a one you do add that position's value.

It's why "one kilobyte" isn't 1,000 bytes, it's 1,024 bytes. A computer would waste space storing 1,000 things.
