uppose a microprocessor has three stages in the

pipeline, as shown in the class notes. Assume a perfect scenario $($such as no branch instructions, no data

dependence between instructions, and no memory I$/$O waiting$)$:

$1.$ How many clock cycles does it take to execute $10$ instructions? What is the throughput $($defined as the

average number of instructions per clock cycle$)?$

$2.$ How many clock cycles does it take to execute n instructions? If n is sufficiently large, what is the

throughput
