An 8-bit binary number consists of 8 symbols, each of which can be either a 0 or a 1. This means that there are two possible values for each bit. Therefore, an 8-bit binary number can represent a total of (2^8 = 256) different values.
1. A single bit can represent two different values, 0 and 1. Then simply take the largest of those two possible values, 1, and that's your answer.
The binary values is 10110101.
The binary number 1111 is 15. The digits in a binary number are exponents of 2 rather than 10, so that for a four digit number in binary, the digit places represent 8, 4, 2, 1 instead of increasing values of 10. 1111 = 8+4+2+1 = 15
The number 23 is 10111 in binary. The digits in a binary number are exponents of 2 rather than 10, so that for a five digit number in binary, the digit places represent 16, 8, 4, 2, 1 instead of increasing values of 10. 10111 = 16+0+4+2+1 = 23
A binary system can represent two distinct states, typically denoted as 0 and 1. Each bit in a binary system can hold one of these two values. When multiple bits are combined, the number of distinct states increases exponentially; for example, an n-bit binary system can represent 2^n distinct states.
Neither of the following are true about 1 bit, it can not represent decimal values 0 and 9 nor can it be used to represent one character in the lowercase English alphabet and one binary digit four binary. A true statement would be that 1 bit is represented by the decimal values 0 or 1.
The decimal number in binary is the six-digit number 110000. The digits in a binary number are exponents of 2 rather than 10, so that for a six-digit number in binary, the digit places represent 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1 instead of increasing values of 10. 110000 = 32 +16 + (0x8) + (0x4) + (0x2) + (0x1) = 48
11111111 (base 2, also called biinary) represents 255. This is all 8 bits of a byte have a value of 1. A byte can represent 256 different values (0 to 255)
The number 75 in binary is 1001011. The digits in a binary number are exponents of 2 rather than 10, so that for a seven digit number in binary, the digit places represent 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1 instead of increasing values of 10. 1001011 = 64+0+0+8+0+2+1 = 75
It is 1111.
