Not able to reach the site with the link provided the Site. The answer could be

;WITH CTE
AS
(
SELECT SEQ, BINARYVALUE, 0 AS EXPO, CONVERT(NVARCHAR(4000),RIGHT(BINARYVALUE,1)) REMAINING
, CONVERT(NVARCHAR(4000),LEFT(BINARYVALUE,LEN(BINARYVALUE) - 1)) DEDUCTIBLE
FROM TC51

UNION ALL

SELECT SEQ, BINARYVALUE, EXPO + 1, CONVERT(NVARCHAR(4000),RIGHT(DEDUCTIBLE,1))
,CONVERT(NVARCHAR(4000),LEFT(DEDUCTIBLE,LEN(DEDUCTIBLE) - CASE WHEN LEN(DEDUCTIBLE) > 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END )) DEDUCTIBLE

FROM CTE
WHERE LEN(DEDUCTIBLE) > 0
)

sELECT SUM(remaining * power(CONVERT(NUMERIC(18,0),2),expo)),seq, binaryvalue
FROM CTE
group by seq, binaryvalue
order by seq, binaryvalue

If there is any better method, please let me know how can I view it?

Most people submit their solutions in the first two weeks after the challenge is published. The evaluation then might take another 2-4 weeks to complete. The solutions will be available publicly after the evaluation is completed.

I would encourage you to go to http://beyondrelational.com/puzzles/sqlserver/tsql/51/submit.aspx and submit your solution.
