Question: Consider the following two floating point numbers A and B, represented in binary like IEEE-754 but in 16-bit format (1 bit sign, 7 bits excess-63
Consider the following two floating point numbers A and B, represented in binary like IEEE-754 but in 16-bit format (1 bit sign, 7 bits excess-63 exponent, 8 bits mantissa).
Sign Exponent Mantissa
A= 0 1000010 11000000
B= 1 0111111 11000000
(i) What decimal numbers A and B represent?
(ii) Perform addition and multiplication i.e., A+B and AB.
Use the 16-bit format to show the result
