### Adding Binary Values: 10101010 + 11111110

This exercise involves adding two binary numbers and choosing the correct result from the given options.

#### Problem Statement
Add the following binary values:
```
10101010 + 11111110
```

#### Possible Answers
- O 110101110
- O 110101000
- O 111101110
- O 111111000

#### Solution
1. Align the two binary numbers for addition:
```
   10101010
 + 11111110
```
2. Add the two binary numbers starting from the rightmost bit. Remember to carry over any value greater than 1 to the next bit:
```
   10101010
 + 11111110
 -----------
  110101000  (Note: There will be carries in several positions)
```
3. The detailed bit-by-bit addition is as follows:
   - 0 + 0 = 0 
   - 1 + 1 = 0 (carry 1)
   - 1 + 1 (with carry 1) = 1 (carry 1)
   - 0 + 1 (with carry 1) = 0 (carry 1)
   - Continue this process...

Thus, the correct result of the binary addition is **110101000**.

#### Answer
The correct answer is:
- O 110101000

Always double-check your binary arithmetic to make sure each bit and carry is correctly accounted for to avoid mistakes.
