Addition and subtraction are example of what?
Binary arithmetic operations.
Benefits of using floating point arithmetic over fixed point arithmetic in CPUs?
Fixed point number usually allow only 8 bits (32 bit computing) of binary numbers for the fractional portion of the number which means many decimal numbers are recorded inaccurately. Floating Point numbers use exponents to shift the decimal point therefore they can store more accurate fractional values than fixed point numbers. However the CPU will have to perform extra arithmetic to read the number when stored in this format.

What is a term in math?
A term consists of a collection of numbers and variables combined together through the use of binary (or other) operations. They are the building blocks of mathematical expressions. Terms will usually stand by themselves or have an addition or subtraction sign before them.
What is the sum of the binary numbers?
The sum of binary numbers is also a binary number.
What are the applications of binary counters?
Binary counters are used in simple timing operations. They can generate clock signals among many other less than complex operations.
