Most straightforward IMVHO opinion is this approach:

loop {
    Look wheather the least significant bit is a 1: "number & 1"
    Store result as char ( '0' or '1' ) into String.
    Shift number to the right: "number >>= 1"
} until number == 0 ( because right shifting fills unsigned ints with 0 ) 
return String.
