Question

1a) A high-end 4K digital camera is capable of taking pictures with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels
each with 8 bits / pixel. How many pictures can be stored on an 8-GB flash memory card if the
compression factor is 7x? Assume that 1 GB means 230 bytes and pictures are stored in RGB colour
space.

b) Conver the following decimal (base-10) numbers to binary. Show your workings and steps
used to obtain the answer.
         1124, 128, 47, 998

c) The following decimal values are to be stored as floating-point binary in a 32-bit registers with 23 bits
for the mantissa and 8 bits for the exponent. The exponents are stored using Excess – 127
representations. Write the contents of the registers in binary.
             1.25, -2.75, 20.5, -75.25
