= 5.625
Find the decimal equivalent of the 6-bit binary number (101.101)2a)5.2...
To convert a binary number to its decimal equivalent, we need to understand the place value of each digit in the binary number. In binary representation, each digit represents a power of 2, starting from the rightmost digit with a power of 0.
Given binary number: (101.101)2
Converting the integer part:
The integer part of the binary number is 101. To convert it to decimal, we multiply each digit by the corresponding power of 2 and sum them up.
(1 * 2^2) + (0 * 2^1) + (1 * 2^0) = 4 + 0 + 1 = 5
Converting the fractional part:
The fractional part of the binary number is 101. To convert it to decimal, we multiply each digit by the corresponding negative power of 2 and sum them up.
(1 * 2^-1) + (0 * 2^-2) + (1 * 2^-3) = 0.5 + 0 + 0.125 = 0.625
Combining the integer and fractional parts, we get the decimal equivalent of the binary number (101.101)2 as 5.62510.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C' (5.62510).
