### 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.
