Eg Write the denary number -43 into normalised form using 10 bits for mantissa and 8 bits for

exponent.

64 32 16 8 4 2 1

1 0 1 0 1 1

Step 1: convert 43 into binary Binary Point

0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1
Move the binary point to the left hand side

For mantissa: 0.101011000

In 2’s complement form
1.010101000

Exponent: in denary 6
In binary 00000110

In normalised form : 1010101000 00000110

(b) -133

Step 1

128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1

For Mantissa: 0.100001010

In 2’s complement: 1.011110110

For Exponent: 8 in denary

In binary 00001000

Answer: 1011110110 00001000

(c) -94.75

128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 0.5 0.25 0.125

0 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1
 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 .1 1

For mantissa: 0.101111011

In 2’s complement 1.010000101
For exponent : in denary it is 7
In binary 00000111
In normalised form: 1010000101 00000111

-111, -80, -14, -12.75, -27.375, -0.1875
