16. If a float number is stored in one byte such that the first bit is the sign, the next three bit represent the exponent in excess-3 notation, and the last four bits represent the mantissa, then if the number is 3.25 then what is the bit pattern a. 00111101 b. 01011101 c. 00110110 d. 01011110 e. None of the above 17. A float number is stored in one byte where the first bit is the sign, the next three bit represent the exponent in excess-3 notation, and the last four bits represent the mantissa.
