Need help with my computer foundations assignment, Please help me solve! Thank you!
Instructions: Answer all questions. Make sure you show your work on #1. Answer #4 in the table format provided. Submit your assignment through Blackboard - Assignments 1. Manually perform the following numbering system conversions. Convert each number using the approach shown in the Carrier textbook, Figures 2.2-2.3. This will require a TWO-STEP conversion in some cases. Do NOT use the binary, decimal, hex conversion table in Table 2.1. Show your work (equation and/or table as shown in Figures 2.2 and 2.3). You can certainly check your work using a calculator, but to receive credit, you must show your manual calculation work. NOTE: Endian ordering is not relevant here. Presume the multi-byte data structure in 1d has already been 'flipped' as needed. NOTE: This is the only section of this assignment where manual calculations are desired. Elsewhere, use a calculator a. Convert 10011011 to a hexadecimal number b. Convert 01010101 to a hexadecimal number. c. Convert 1x4B to a decimal number. d. Convert xCDEF to a decimal number. e. Convert OE to a binary numbe f. Convert xFF to a binary number. Briefly explain why the maximum number you can represent with a given number of binary bits differs from the "maximum count." Use an example to support your explanation. 2. 3. Answer 3a-3f based on the following hex dump, which is the start of a master boot record (MBR) (known as the SBoot file in an NTFS volume). You will need to use Table 13.18 in your textbook.
