Practical on Binary Arithmetic and radix conversion 1007ICT

The aim of this practical exercise is to re-enforce the material related to the addition and subtraction of binary numbers, the representation of negative numbers, and the conversion from one representation to another.

The following is a randomly generated exercise and is different for each user.

  1. Perform binary addition on these binary numbers...

    10110000 + 110111 =>
    11111 + 1011100 =>
    11000010 + 111100 =>

  2. Perform binary subtraction on these binary numbers. Assume 8 bit two's complement representation.

    10001101 - 1010001 =>
    10011111 - 1100100 =>
    101110 - 100100 =>

  3. Negate the binary numbers shown.
    Assume 8 bit two's complement representation...

    - 1100000 =>
    - 1110000 =>
    - 10011101 =>

  4. Convert the following numbers between the given bases

    binary 10000001 : octal
    decimal 226 : hexadecimal
    decimal 27 : octal
