Convert the decimal number 14 to binary.
Answer:

Convert the binary number 101101 to decimal:
Answer:

32,8,4,1 = 45

Which is larger: 1000 or 0111?
Answer:

1000 is larger since it has more leading ones ( literally digit 1) compared to 0111. By leading one, i mean the outer most on the left side.

Which is larger: 00100 or 01011?
Answer:

01011 is larger as it is got again the more leading ones ( digit 1) on the left side.

What is 10101 + 01010?
Answer:
It is 11111

What is 10001 + 10001?
Answer:
It is 100010


What's the largest number you can store with 4 bits, if you want to be able to represent the number 0?
Answer:

Answer1: If representing 0 means having 0000 AS A POSSIBLE NUMBER in the range of 0 to largest number produced by four digits, then the largest possible number is when all the digits are one which makes 1111 the largest number.

Answer2: If it means having 0 in one of the digits as a possible occurrence, then the largest possible number produced when zero goes to the last digit to have the least effect which 1110 the largest number.

How many bits would you need in order to store the numbers between 0 and 255 inclusive?
Answer:

since 256 is 2^8 the biggest number of digits with 255 inclusive is made when we have 8 digits.

How many bits would you need in order to store the numbers between 0 and 3 inclusive?
Answer:

2 bits.

How many bits would you need in order to store the numbers between 0 and 1000 inclusive?
Answer:

10 bits. since 2^n - 1 = the biggest number with n bits.

How can you test if a binary number is a power of two (e.g. 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...)?
Answer:

if a number is a power of 2, then it has only one bit as 1 and the rest are zeros.

Convert the hex number 386 to decimal.
Answer:

If reading the byte 0x21 as a number, what decimal number would it mean?
Answer:
2(16^1)+1(16^0) = 33

If reading the byte 0x21 as an ASCII character, what character would it mean?
Answer:
!

If reading the byte 0x21 as a greyscale colour, as described in "Approaches for Representing Colors and Images", what colour would it mean?
If reading the byte ox21 as a greyscale colour, as described in "Approaches for Representing Colors and Images", what colour would it mean?
Answer:

Since Ox21 is 33 in decimal and we have a range of 0(black) to 255(white) in decimal, then 33 is relatively close to zero. So it the gray scale it a dark grey

If reading the bytes 0xAA00FF as an RGB colour, as described in "Approaches for Representing Colors and Images", what colour would it mean?
Answer:

Each set of 2 hex digits stands for each of primary colors in the following order:
RRGGBB: comparing it to AA00FF means that we don't have any greens. so we would have a mixture of blue and red. So eventually we have shade of purpule


If reading the bytes 0xAA00FF as a sequence of three one-byte decimal numbers, what decimal numbers would they be?
Answer:

So A in hex represents 10 in decimal
And F in hex represent 15, so:
AA => (16^0)*10 + (16^1)*10 = 10+160 = 170;
00 => 0
FF => (16^0)*15 + (16^1)*15 = 15+240 = 255
