Complete the following Table - this assumes the number of places is represented in the exponent. Provide answers for the values which have a "?": Term Value Decimal Equivalent Noun Name (if any) 210 ? Bit 1010 241 ? None 212 ? None 23 ? None 244 16 Hex or Nibble 10^1 245 32 None 216 ? None 217 ? ? 218 256 ? None 219 ? None 2410 1024 Kilo 1000 2120 ? ? 10^6 2130 1,073,741,824 ? ? 1010 1 Unit NA 10^1 10 NA 1043 ? ? NA 10^6 ? ? NA 10^9 1,000,000,000 ? NA What is the significance of the exponent in each term? Answer this question by considering the role of the exponent both in the binary numbers Ex: 2430 and number of digits in the decimal number Ex: 1013. So you have to explain what is the role of 430 in 2130 and what is the role of A3 in 1043. How do the noun names relate between the decimal and binary equivalents? The same 'nouns' are used for the exponent numbers as well as the decimal values. As you can see the decimal values are smaller than the binary values. The binary values are used for storage, for example when we talk about 1 Kilo Byte of storage, that's equivalent to 2410 which is equal to 1024. The actual number for a Kilo is 1000 but since we are using a binary number (2410) to represent it and we get an actual number of 1024. If we talk about a kilo bit of information for data transmission, we use exactly 1000 bits or 1 Kilo Bits. In both of these cases the 'noun' that we use to refer to it is called 'kilo
