 6. 1000000000 is a Binary number. Can you use your knowledge of conversion of Binary to Decimal to suggest the answer - what is it in Decimal?

  512

  888

  This is not a binary number as they only go up to 8 bits

  256

 7. Look at the following example showing the conversion from Binary to Decimal. Is it True(Correct) or False(Incorrect)?

  TRUE

  FALSE

 8. What is the largest number that can be represented (in Decimal) using just 8 binary bits. For example: 11111111

  8 bits can represent 8 x 2 which is 16

  255, because 128 + 64 + 32 + 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 255

  There is no limit - a million or billion can be represented using 8 bits

  8 bits can only represent 8

 9. Convert the following Binary number into Decimal (note that Decimal is sometimes referred to as Denary)
Binary Number: 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

128    64    32   16   8   4   2   1
 1      0    0    0    0   0   0   0
 
 =     ?
