Q:

11101010100110.0101010111 base 2 (convert this number to base 4)

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:3222212.11113Step-by-step explanation:First, you should take care of the fractional separator (the dot) so we split the problem in two parts: one for the integer and other for the fractional part. Since 4 is a power of 2, we can just take two digits from the orignal number and asign it to its corresponding number in base 4:[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cc}Binary&Base 4\\00&0\\01&1\\10&2\\11&3\end{array}\right][/tex]Start with the fractional part from the fractional point to the right:[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}01&01&01&01&11\\1&1&1&1&3\end{array}\right][/tex]Then do the same to the integer part starting from the fractional point to the left.[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccccccc}11&10&10&10&10&01&10\\3&2&2&2&2&1&2\end{array}\right][/tex]By joining them together, we obtain the response.
