The value of 000011110 in decimal is____________.
Correct Answer
C. 26
Explanation
The given binary value is 000011110. To convert this binary value to decimal, we need to multiply each digit by its corresponding power of 2 and then sum them up. Starting from the rightmost digit, the powers of 2 are 2^0, 2^1, 2^2, 2^3, 2^4, 2^5, 2^6, and 2^7. The digits in the binary value are 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, and 0. Multiplying each digit by its corresponding power of 2 and summing them up, we get 0*2^0 + 0*2^1 + 0*2^2 + 0*2^3 + 1*2^4 + 1*2^5 + 1*2^6 + 0*2^7 = 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 16 + 32 + 64 + 0 = 112.

The binary equivalent of the decimal 102 is?
Correct Answer
C. 01100110
Explanation
The correct answer is 01100110. To convert decimal to binary, we divide the decimal number by 2 and note down the remainder. We continue this process until the quotient becomes 0. Then we write down the remainders in reverse order to get the binary equivalent. In this case, when we divide 102 by 2, the remainder is 0 and the quotient is 51. When we divide 51 by 2, the remainder is 1 and the quotient is 25. We continue this process until the quotient becomes 0. The remainders in reverse order are 01100110, which is the binary equivalent of 102.
