1 Code 120957 base 10 in floating pt form using IEEE format

1) Code 12.0957 (base 10) in floating pt. form using IEEE format. (only to the fifth precision)

2) Decode the following memory dump, coded in IEEE form to it\'s (decimal)base 10 value:

85 79 F8 00 (base 16)

Solution

1) 12.0957 (base 10) = 1100.00011 (base 2) = C.187FC (base 16) = 14.06077 (base 8)

2) 85 79 F8 00 (base 16) = 2239363072 (base 10) = 1000 0101 0111 1001 1111 1000 0000 0000 (base 2)
