An N-bit integer holds 2N different values.

For an unsigned integer, the range of values is 0..2N-1 thus.

For a signed integer using 2s complement, the range is -2N-1..+2N-1-1.

Therefore, the largest positive number that can be stored using 8 bits is 255.

What is largest positive value that may be store in 20 bits?

The largest positive value that can be stored in 20 bits is calculated using the formula for the maximum value of an unsigned binary number, which is (2^n - 1), where (n) is the number of bits. For 20 bits, this is (2^{20} - 1 = 1,048,576 - 1 = 1,048,575). Therefore, the largest positive value that can be stored in 20 bits is 1,048,575.
