- Description Find the sum of 10.2510 and 5.2510 using the 14-bit "simple" floating-point model. Hint: Refer to slides or class notes for a similar example.arrow_forwardAssume we are using the simple model for floating-point representation discussed in the class (the representation uses a 14-bit format, 5 bits for the exponent with an Excess-M, a significand of 8 bits, and a single sign bit for the number): Convert 12.345 to the floating-point binary representation. (Remember we learned "implied one" format in the lecture) You need to type in the calculation steps or insert the picture of your handwriting using "insert" menu above.arrow_forwardSuppose A = +54 and B = -3 (both in base 10).Q1: What is the lowest number of rounds theoretically to complete the integer division using the optimized division algorithm?Q2: What is the resulting number in binary representation if we use 8 bits to represent it?Q3: What is the resulting number in FP decimal representation if we use the IEEE 754 standard for single precision? (form of this result should be in sign, true exponent in binary, IEEE-754 Exponent in binary and IEEE-754 exponent in decimal (base 10 number) )arrow_forward
- 2. po.) What is the largest number that can be represented using 5 bits?arrow_forwardThe table below is similar to the one in Part A, but this time each row provides a decimal value. For each row, provide the equivalent binary value in the second column. And again, please provide your final answer in the table and show and submit all your work on a separate page. Base 2 (Binary) Туре unsigned byte unsigned byte byte byte Base 10 (Decimal) 204 17 65 -90arrow_forwardPutting the value 5 into cell number 6 is the same as shifting the contents of cell number 5 into cell number 6, if cell number 5 presently stores the value 8.arrow_forward
