  1. 224174

  2. 425174

  3. 6173

  4. 225714


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Only option two gives 12A7C.

Let each integer be represented by five bits. Which of the following systems will be

  1. one's compliment only

  2. two's compliments only

  3. sign and magnitude and one's compliments

  4. one's compliments and two's compliments


Correct Option: C

Which of the following is an unweighted code?

  1. 8421 code

  2. Excess 3 code

  3. 2421 code

  4. 5211 code


Correct Option: B

The sign magnitude representative of decimal number _687 is

  1. 0687

  2. 9687

  3. 1687

  4. 1312


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

In sign magnitude representation, an additional left most bit of sign representation will be attached with the decimal number, here 9 means ‘_‘. Hence 9687 is the right answer.

The sign magnitude representation of binary number -1101.011 is

  1. 01101.001

  2. 13.100

  3. 11101.001

  4. 13.101


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

In a sign magnitude representation an additional left most bit of sign representation will be attached with the number, here 1 mean '-'.

The 1's compliment of the binary number 1101101 is _________.

  1. 0003

  2. 0010010

  3. 0211

  4. 1101110


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

To find out the one’s complement of a binary number, we will simply replace the 1’s with 0’s and vice versa. Hence, one’s complement of 1101101 will be 0010010.
