(B)

`(0.01 )_2`

(C)

`(0.1 )_2`

(D)

`(1 )_2`

Solution:

`(0.101)_2 = 2^(-1) xx 1 + 2^(-2) xx 0 + 2^(-3) xx 1`

`= 1/2 + 0 + 1/8 = 5/8`

and `(0.011)_2 = 0 xx 2^(-1) + 1 xx 2^(-2) + 1 xx 2^(-3)`

`= 0 + 1/4 + 1/8 = 3/8`

Also, `(11)_2 = 1 xx 2^1 + 1 xx 2^0 = 3`

`(10)_2 = 1 xx 2^1 + 0 xx 2^0 = 2`

and `(01)_2 = 0 xx 2^1 + 2^0 xx 2^0 = 1`

`= 8 + 4 + 0 + 1 = 13`

and `y = (110)_2 = 1 xx 2^2 + 1 xx 2^1 + 0 xx 2^0`

`= 4 + 2+ 0 = 6`

` :. x^2 - y^2 = (13)^2 - (6)^2 = 169 - 36 = 133`

`:. 133 = (10000101)_2`
Correct Answer is `=>` (B) `(10000101)_2`
Q 2357134084

(A)

`0, 0, 1`

(B)

`0, 1, 0`

(C)

`1, 1, 0`

(D)

`0, 0, 0`

Solution:

`(10x010)_2 - (11y1)_2 = (10z11)_2`

`= (2^5 xx 1 + 0 xx 2^4 + x xx 2^3 + 0 xx 2^2 + 1 xx 2^1 + 0 xx 2^0)`

`- (2^3 xx 1 + 2^2 xx 1 + y xx 2^1 + 1 xx 2^0)`

`= 2^4 xx 1 + 0 xx 2^3 + 2^2 xx z + 2^1 xx 1 + 2^0 xx 1`

`=> (34 + 8x) - (13 + 2y ) = 19 + 4z`

`=> 2 = - 8x + 2y + 4z`

`=> x = 0, y = 1 , z = 0`

Solution:

` ∵ (0.1101)_2 = 1 xx 2^(-1) + 1 xx 2^(-2) + 0 xx 2^(-3) + 1 xx 2^(-4)`

` = 1/2 + 1/4 - 1/(16) = (13)/(16)`

`= (0.8125)_(10)`

Hence, `(0.8125)_(10) = (0.1101 )_2`

Alternate Method

`0.8125 xx 2 = 1.625`

`0.6125 xx 2 = 1.25`

`0.25 xx 2 = 0.50`

`0.5 xx 2 = 1.0`

`=> (0.8125)_(10) = (0.1101)_2`
Correct Answer is `=>` (A) `(0.1101)_2`
