b) . What is the minimum number of bits that can be used to represent the decimal
number 213?
11010101

c) What is the minimum number of bytes that can be used to represent the decimal
number 213?
1 byte
d) What is a purpose of using hexadecimal notation?
It is easy to convert the binary number into its hexadecimal equivalent. And it can
decrease decimals which can help the computer to store more information
e) What is ASCII code?
It’s an abbreviation of the America Standard Code for Information Interchange. It’s
the a character-encoding based on the ordering of the English alphabet. ASCII codes
represent text in computers, communication equipment, and other devices that use
text.

a. “Hex” in binary representation is 01001000 0100010 101011000.

b. “Read” in binary representation is 01010010 01000101 01000001

01000100, which is equivalent to 82 69 65 68 in decimal representation.
