Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 2, Problem 4RETC
Explanation of Solution
Base 2:
- The base 2 represents the binary number system.
- Binary numbers can be represented with two digits 0 and 1. Each 0 or 1 in binary number is also called as bits.
- The method of representing 2 as its base of each digit is called binary number.
Base 8:
- The base 8 represents the octal number system.
- Octal number system consists of eight digits from 0 to 7.
- Normally, the machine code consists of binary digits, which are represented in bits that are very large to handle in an
operating system . - So, each octal value is an abbreviated form of three binary digits.
- The method of representing 8 as its base of each digit is called octal number.
Base 16:
- The base 16 represents the hexadecimal number system.
- Hexadecimal number system consists of sixteen digits from 0 to 9, and from 10 to 15 is represented in the form of letters from A to F.
- Normally, the machine code consists of binary digits, which are represented in bits that are very large to handle in an operating system.
- So, each hexadecimal digit is an abbreviated form of four binary digits.
- The method of representing 16 as its base of each digit is called hexadecimal number...
