To convert the decimal number 23 into its binary equivalent, we can use the method of successive division by 2, keeping track of the remainders.

1. **Divide 23 by 2**:
- 23 ÷ 2 = 11 with a remainder of 1.

2. **Divide 11 by 2**:
- 11 ÷ 2 = 5 with a remainder of 1.

3. **Divide 5 by 2**:
- 5 ÷ 2 = 2 with a remainder of 1.

4. **Divide 2 by 2**:
- 2 ÷ 2 = 1 with a remainder of 0.

5. **Divide 1 by 2**:
- 1 ÷ 2 = 0 with a remainder of 1.

Now, we collect the remainders from bottom to top: 10111.

Thus, the binary representation of the decimal number 23 is 10111.

Looking at the options provided:
