Question 2 only please (25 points)[Float Point Design] In a hypothetical 5-bit floating point format, 3 leading bits
are used for exponent, E, in two's compliment format and the two remaining bits are for the
fraction F, where the number is determined using x=1.F2E. Answer the following
questions:
(a) What is the decimal value of the five bits set to 01101?
(b) What is the decimal value of the five bits set to 10010?
(c) What is the range of this format?
(d) How would a 7 get represented in these five bits?
(e) How would 0.375 get represented?
(f) How many distinct numbers can be represented in this format?
(15 points)[Float Point Design] From problem 1, if we change how a number is determined
using the following functions, what is the new range, and how many distinct numbers can be
represented?
(a)x=F.02E.
(b)x=0.F2E.
(c)x=F.12E.
