B. 1101010
= 106
Question 4:
Convert the following decimal numbers to binary numbers
a- 60
= 60 is even number so we put 0 in the first right digit then divide by 2 we get 30 which is even number so we
put 0 again then divide by 2 so we get 15 which is odd so we put 1 in the left of the zeros then subtract 1 from
15 we get 14 then divide by 2 we get 7 which is odd so put 1 then subtract 1 and divide by 2 so we get 3 which
is odd so we put 1 again subtract 1 and divide by 2 we get 1 which is odd number then we put 1 in the left last
number then we stop here and have a binary number 111100
b- 53
= 110101
c- 123
= 1111011
Question 5:
Add the following binary numbers
a- 1011011
+
1001111
= 10101010
b- 111010
+
10011
= 1001101
c- 110110110
+
100011101
= 1011010011
Question 6:
Subtract the following binary numbers
a- 1011011
-
0001111
= 1001100
b- 110010
-
11111
= 10011
c- 11001000
-
01101111
= 1011001
Question 7:
Multiply the following binary numbers
a- 101111
*
101
= 11101011
b- 110010
*
100
= 11001000
c- 101000
*
1011
= 110111000
