Scenario: In a biased N-bit binary number system with bias B, positive and negative numbers are represented as their value plus the bias B. For example, for 5-bit numbers with a bias of 15, the number 0 is represented as 01111, 1 as 10000, and so forth. Biased number systems are sometimes used in floating point mathematics. Consider a biased 8-bit binary number system with a bias of 12710 Question: What is the representation and value of the most negative number?
