Question

Fixed point (not floating-point) decimal multiplication is shown on left. Do the same multiplication in binary. Show that the binary answer is same as decimal answer, i.e., when finished, convert binary to decimal. Show the 8-bit two's complement representation (if possible) for -35, 14, and 255. Floating-point conversion: Show the floating-point decimal value for the IEEE 754 binary32 hex representation 0xc0700000. Show the IEEE 754 binary32 hex representation for the floating-point decimal value -2.125.10^1.

Explanation / Answer

1. 27.5   11011.1

x 3.25   11.01

------------------------------------------------

  110111

000000

  110111

--------------------------------------------------

89.375 1011001.011

2. 2's compelement representation:

-35: -001000112 = 110111012

14: 000011102

255: Cannot be represented. The range of numbers that be represented with 8 bits is: -128 to 0 to 127.

3. 0xC0700000 = -3.7510 = 1100 0000 0111 0000 0000 0000 0000 00002.

   -2.125 * 101= 0xc1AA000016 = 1100 0001 1010 1010 0000 0000 0000 00002
