You take 1245 and form the two's complement of it then add it to D257. The two's complement of a number is defined as the 1's complement + 1. In signed two's complement arithmetic, the most significant bit is the "sign" bit. 1 indicates a negative number and 0 indicates a positive number. To find the magnitude of a negative number, take it's two's complement (ignoring carry bits). To get the two's complement of 1245, take the 1's complement of 1245 and add 1. In binary 1245 is 0001001001000101. The one's complement is 1110110110111010 (in hex that's EDBA) . Adding 1 to this will give you the two's complement. That is EDBA+0001 (ignore the carry if any), is EDBB. Now you add EDBB to D257 and ignore any carry, so that will be 1C012 (throw away the carry bit), C012. C012 is a negative number (the sign bit, the most significant bit, is 1). To find its magnitude, apply the two's complement algorithm above, and you'll find it to be -16365. Note: D257 is a negative number, and you're subracting a positive number, so you're going to end up with another negative number, i.e. adding the two's complement of a number is the same thing as subtracting the number. You can check your result by doing the math in decimal to see if it adds up. D257 in decimal = -11688 (you apply the two's complement to the number to find the magnitude, and the sign is negative because the sign bit, the most signficant bit is 1). 1245 in decimal = 4677. -11688-4677 = -16365 (which in hex signed two's complement is C012).

one's complement is a bitwise complement of a binary number. (ie, 1 becomes 0 and 0 becomes 1) A one's complement isn't really used as much as a two's complement. A two's complement is used in a system where the larges bit in a binary number represents a negative number. so the bits for a 4 bit number would have the values of (from right to left): -8, 4, 2, 1 this allows you to represent any number from -8 (1000) to positive 7 (0111) To find the two's complement of a number, you take the one's complement, and then add 1. This significant because if a computer wants to subtract two numbers, it simply takes the two's complement of the second number and adds them together. More significance arises in digital circuits when constructing circuits using only nand/nor gates, as these perform slightly faster than and/or gates.
Ones complement simply switches the state of all the bits (0s becomes 1s and 1s becomes 0s). Assuming 1000 is binary (for decimal 8), the 1's complement would be 0111. But if 1000 is really decimal one thousand, the binary equivalent would 1111101000, thus the ones complement would be 0000010111. Ones complement was originally used to represent signed integers. To flip the sign, all bits were flipped and the most-significant bit denoted the sign (0 for positive, 1 for negative). The problem with one's complement is that we end with two representations for the value zero: 00000000 and 11111111 in 8-bit notation. To eliminate this, most modern systems now use twos complement, which is ones complement plus one. Thus 00000000 is 11111111 + 00000001 which is 00000000. Note that ones complement notation means that an 8-bit value has a valid range of -127 through +127 (with two representations for zero) while twos complement gives us a range of -128 through +127. Signed integer notation is also system-dependent, hence the reason why a char data type in C only has a guaranteed range of at least -127 through +127 across all implementations. For that reason it is not safe to assume that -128 has a valid representation in 8-bit signed notation across all implementations.
You can detect overflow if the result turns out to be negative (which is the same as checking to see if the sign bit is 1). For example if you tried to add 5 and 6 in to 4-bit 2s complement, you would get 0101 + 0110 = 1011, which is a negative number since the sign bit (the 1 on the left) is a 1. This is an overflow.
ANSWER: MSB IS 1 In the 2's complement representation, the 2's complement of a binary number is obtained by first finding the one's complement (flipping all the bits), and then adding 1 to the result. This representation is commonly used to represent signed integers in binary form. Now, if all bits except the sign bit are the same, taking the 2's complement of the binary number will result in the negative of the original number. The sign bit (the leftmost bit) is flipped, changing the sign of the entire number. For example, let's take the 4-bit binary number 1101 The 2's complement would be obtained as follows: Find the one's complement: 0010 Add 1 to the one's complement: 0011

If a memory location is to contain a signed integer, then it will have a sign bit (zero means positive, one means negative). Also the negative numbers are represented by a complement (normally the two's complement). The article in the related link does a good explanation. What this means: for example, an 8 bit location could represent 256 possible numbers. In an unsigned situation, this would be 0 to 255. But in a signed situation, the range is -128 to +127.
You take 1245 and form the two's complement of it then add it to D257. The two's complement of a number is defined as the 1's complement + 1. In signed two's complement arithmetic, the most significant bit is the "sign" bit. 1 indicates a negative number and 0 indicates a positive number. To find the magnitude of a negative number, take it's two's complement (ignoring carry bits). To get the two's complement of 1245, take the 1's complement of 1245 and add 1. In binary 1245 is 0001001001000101. The one's complement is 1110110110111010 (in hex that's EDBA) . Adding 1 to this will give you the two's complement. That is EDBA+0001 (ignore the carry if any), is EDBB. Now you add EDBB to D257 and ignore any carry, so that will be 1C012 (throw away the carry bit), C012. C012 is a negative number (the sign bit, the most significant bit, is 1). To find its magnitude, apply the two's complement algorithm above, and you'll find it to be -16365. Note: D257 is a negative number, and you're subracting a positive number, so you're going to end up with another negative number, i.e. adding the two's complement of a number is the same thing as subtracting the number. You can check your result by doing the math in decimal to see if it adds up. D257 in decimal = -11688 (you apply the two's complement to the number to find the magnitude, and the sign is negative because the sign bit, the most signficant bit is 1). 1245 in decimal = 4677. -11688-4677 = -16365 (which in hex signed two's complement is C012).
One way is using the Twos (2s) complement; that is you find the binary representation of the positive number of -19, flip all the bits (0s to 1s and 1s to 0s), and finally add 1 to it.The positive bit of -19 is simply 19. It has a binary code of 0001 0011 (8 bits are required for this particular method). Flipping the bits, we get 1110 1100. Adding 1 (or 0000 0001) to our last answer, we get 1110 1101 which would be the binary representation of -19.
A 5-bit binary counter, interpreted as an unsigned integer, has a range of 0 to 31. Interpreted as a two's complement signed integer, it has a range of -16 to +15.
41 in decimal is 0100 0001 in BCD (this is 8 bits not 6 bits)41 in decimal is 101001 in binary (this is 6 bits, but binary not BCD)There is no 6 bit BCD representation of the decimal number 41!

Since you mention two's complement, we have to assume that you are dealing with positive and negative numbers which means that the highest order bit is the sign bit. So the maximum positive number would be hex 7F which is equivalent to 127 and the maximum negative number would be -128
