If that is correct then the binary code converter comes up with "10100111011100110110000111101110010111101100101111: Error: Malformed binary. Your binary code is must be divisible by 8".

Thus either the questions asked are not correctly answered or we have to look at possibilities of translating whatever is hidden in this code in another way - such as hex, for example.

What about using the answer in binary as morse code?

you can't do this without knowing pause sequence (morse code needs 3 different chars, not 2)

that is a real/correct binary number...I can not comment on the answers...

In order for a binary number to be divisible by eight, the last three digits need to be 000. (Assuming it's big-endian.)

Ahem...

Whatever application was responsible for this message is botched. It's like saying a decimal number has to have a certain amount of digits.

Binary numbers are just numbers with a different base than 10. Just because computers usually use 8 bits as their smallest storage unit does not make other binary numbers invalid.

No, just add three leading zeroes to satisfy broken applications

Ah, so it means the length of the binary number needs to be divisible by eight. Not the number itself.

In that case my 000 suggestion is wrong.

Btw, padding the binary number with zeros only produces gibberish.

Adding three zeroes to the end of that binary code does not satisfy the broken application.

Tried using another converter and got nothing but nonsense, but for the sake of the cluefinding, this is the nonsense I found:

without adding three zeroes. When I DID add the three zeroes, it gave me the same result.

We have to consider firstly if all answers are correct - we have not done so just yet, have we?

Anyway it can be made into a longitude and latitude coordinates?

Not to the end... leading zeroes, i.e. at the beginning.

You would need to add six zeros to the left. But like I said, it only produces gibberish.

Not at the end, at the beginning. You don't usually write "002011" but "2011" because you don't write leading zeros.

if i take binaries to dived by 7 bits we have 7 values:

164 115 97 238 94 195 192

Answer if in Senary 1113 0151 1210 1010 1315

Uhm... the number is supposed to be

1113 0151 1200 1010 1310

right? the 1 in the third block after the 2 is wrong. That was question:

  Reveal hidden contents

Which is "no" but was assumed "yes" in the beginning by someone.

^^ That's what I got.

Unable to make sense of it so far. This is a tough one.
