![### Amplifier Gain Calculation
**Problem Statement:**
If -47 dBm is measured at the input of an amplifier and -24 dBm at the output, what would the gain be in dB?
**Solution:**
To find the gain in dB, use the formula for calculating gain:
\[ \text{Gain (dB)} = \text{Output Level (dBm)} - \text{Input Level (dBm)} \]
Substitute the given values:
\[ \text{Gain (dB)} = -24 \, \text{dBm} - (-47 \, \text{dBm}) \]
\[ \text{Gain (dB)} = -24 \, \text{dBm} + 47 \, \text{dBm} \]
\[ \text{Gain (dB)} = 23 \, \text{dB} \]
So, the gain of the amplifier is 23 dB.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F8d0965ec-e02e-4363-aba0-fca3ccf5b9fe%2Fe739cf3e-cbed-4bbd-be52-aa59e8daa170%2Fm85xvx_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
