Question: Two floating point numbers are added to form a floating - point sum: ( F 1 x 2 F 1 ) + ( F 2

Two floating point numbers are added to form a floating-point sum:
(F1 x 2F1)+(F2 x 2=2)= F x 2E
Assume that F, and F2 are normalised and that the result should be normalised.
(*Illustrate the steps required to carry out floating-point addition
for F1=1.0101,1=1001 and F2=0.1010, E2=1000. Note
that the fractions are 5 bits, including sign, and the exponents are 4 bits, including sign.
(ii) Verify the result of the addition in part b)(i).
