    This document provides instructions for converting decimal numbers to their 8-bit 2's complement binary representations and examples of adding numbers in their 2's complement form. It explains the steps to convert a decimal number like -47 to its 8-bit 2's complement (11010001), and provides practice problems to convert -5, -21, and -67. It then demonstrates how to perform binary subtraction by first converting the numbers to 2's complement and then adding them, working through an example of 150 - 47.
