1. The following is EBCDIC code represented in Hexadecimal rather than binary format. Translate into case specific English. (remember each hex character represents 4 binary digits: 0xC is 1100 for example. Each English character is represented in 8-bits, two hexadecimal digits.)

C5A7819440899540A3A69640A6858592A2

2. The bit pattern 11010111 is found on a computer that uses using Excess-127 to store integers. What is the actual value of this representation in decimal?

3. The decimal value 85 is to be stored on a computer using Excess-127. What is the 8-bit binary representation of the stored value?

4. Assuming twos complement representation, use arithmetic shifting to perform the following:

a) quadruple the value 01110111₂

b) What (if any) error conditions occurred when doing these operations? Answer either none or describe the error.

5. Assuming twos complement representation, use arithmetic shifting to perform the following:

a) divide the value 11001010₂ in half (fill in with 1s just like you fill in with zeros)

b) What (if any) error conditions occurred when doing these operations? Answer either none or describe the error?
