Explanation

 

(a)) 125.625, to binary

2 125 R
2 62 1
2 31 0
2 15 1
2 7 1
2 3 1
2 1 1
2 0 1

Therefore, 125= 111110

Hence, 125.625 = 1111101.101,

2nd step: 125 to binary

First method: (0.625) = 625/1000 = 25/40 = 5/8

Hence, 5/8 = (4+1)/ 8 = 4/8 + 1/8 = 1/2 + 1/8

1 X 2\(^{-1}\) + 0 X 2 \(^{-2}\) + 1 x 2\(^{-3}\) = 0.101\(_{2}\)

 Therefore, 0.625 = 0.101\(_{2}\),

Second method: 0.625*2 = 1.25 Fraction part 1.23 Carry1

0.25 * 2 =0.5 Fraction part 0.5 Carry 0

0.5 * 2 = 1.00 Fraction part 1.00 Cary 1

0.625 = 0.101\(_{-2}\),

Therefore, (i) 111011.10011, to octal

111\(_2\) = 7\(_8\)

 011\(_2\) = 3\(_8\)

100\(_2\) = 4\(_8\)

110\(_2\) = 6\(_8\)

111011.10011\(_2\) = 73.46\(_8\)

bi    X = 11011011, Y = 11101101

         

X Y Z = X.Y
1 1          1
1 1          1
0 1           0
1 0           0
1 1           1
0 1           0
1 0           0
1 1           1

bii is shown above.

biii  Z = 11001001
