It is somewhat complicated (search for the IEEE floating-point representation for more details), but the basic idea is that you have a few bits for the base, and a few bits for the exponent. The numbers are stored in binary, not in decimal, so the base and the exponent are the numbers "a" and "b" in a x 2b.

2^32 is amount of blocks that address bus could locate. and each blocks is 64bit because data bus has 64 lines. then maximum number of bits stored in memory is (2^32)*64 bit. By: Mohammad Saghafi Email: mohammads1364@yahoo.com

The largest binary number that can be expressed with 16 bits is 1111111111111111, which is equivalent to 65,535 in decimal. This number uses all 16 bits set to 1. In general, for an n-bit binary number, the maximum value is (2^n - 1). Thus, for 16 bits, it is (2^{16} - 1 = 65,535).
The first microprocessor was the 4004. It could handle 4 bits at a time.

The microprocessor used in the first home computer was the 8080. It could handle 8 bits at a time.
The 8085 is an 8-bit microprocessor. Even though there are some 16-bit registers (BC, DE, HL, SP, PC), with some 16-bit operations that can be performed on them, and a 16-bit address bus, the accumulator (A), the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), and the data bus are 8-bits in size, making the 8085 an 8-bit computer.
queue of 8086 microprocessor is 6 bits
The number 64 in the Nintendo 64 refers to how many bits the CPU can process at a time. Many people mistakenly think the 64 refers to the storage space, but that is incorrect.
As it is 16bit processor it can manupulate 16 bits in one operation
8086 is a 16bit processor.
None. A microprocessor is a control and datapath strung together with a bag of bits to manage IRQs communicating over some kind of system bus.The PowerPC 405 is a microprocessor.
