Q1. What is a Number System? What are
different types of number system?
Number system
A number system is a set of digits, symbols and rules to express
quantities in counting and calculations. Following are the most commonly used
number systems:

Decimal Number System
It is most commonly used number system. It has 10
symbols{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}. It is also called base 10 number system. People
normally use decimal number system to represent numbers.
Binary Number System
In binary number system there are only two symbols {0 and 1}. In a
computer all data is represented by Binary number system. This is because
computer’s electronic switches have only two states on and OFF. When a switch
is ON it represents a 1 and when a switch is OFF, it represents a Zero.
Octal Number System
Octal number system consists of 8 digits{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7}. Its base is
8. It is used as shorthand for long binary numbers. Each octal digit represents
3 binary digits.

Hexadecimal Number System
Hexadecimal number system is used to represent long binary numbers in
an easy and short form. Its base is 16. It has sixteen
symbols{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F}. Each hexadecimal digit represents 4
binary digits.

=> 4510 = (101101)2 11910=(167)8 19010=(BE)16

=> (.23)10 = (.00111)2 [Similar method is used for decimal (fraction) to Octal (multiply by
8)and hexadecimal(multiply by 16)]
Q4. Conversion of Other systems (Integer part) to Decimal
a) (101101)2 =( ? )10 b)
(167)8 = (?)10 (BE)16 =(?)10
a) (101101)2
=1x25+0x24+1x23+1x22+0x21+1x20
= 32
+ 0 + 8
+ 4 + 0
+1
= 45

b) (167)8
=1x82+6x81+7x80
= 64
+ 48 + 7
= 119
|
c) (BE)2
=Bx161+Ex160
=
11x161+14x160
=
176 + 14
=
190

Q5. Conversion of Other systems(Fraction
part) to Decimal number system
a) (.110)2 =( ? )10 b)
(.75)8 = (?)10 (.13)16 =(?)10
a) (.110)2
=.{1x2-1+1x2-2+0x2-3}
=.{ 1/2
+ 1/4 + 0}
=.{
.5 + .25
+ 0}
=.75
|
b) (.75)8
=.{7x8-1+5x8-2 }
=.{ 7/8
+ 5/64 }
= .{.875 + .0781}
= .9531
|
c) (.13)16
=.{1x16-1+3x16-2 }
=.{1/16
+3/256}
=
.{.0625 + .01171}
=
.0742
