1. Unsigned Integers
If we have an n-digit unsigned numeral dn-1d n-2...do in radix (or base) r, then the value of that
numeral is
n−1
r² di
Σi=0
which is basically saying that instead of a 10's or 100's place we have an r's or
r²'s place. For binary, decimal, and hex r equals 2, 10, and 16, respectively.
Just a reminder that in order to write down a large number, we typically use the IEC or SI
prefixing system:
IEC: Ki = 210, Mi = 220, Gi = 230, Ti = 240, Pi = 250, Ei = 260, Zi = 270, Yi = 280;
SI: K=103, M = 106, G = 109, T = 10¹², P = 1015, E = 10¹8, Z = 1021, Y = 1024.
1.1 Conversions
a. (15 pts) Write the following using IEC prefixes: 213, 223, 251, 272, 226, 244
21323 Ki8 Ki
223 23 Mi 8 Mi
b. (15 pts) Write the following using SI prefixes: 107, 10¹7, 10¹¹, 1022, 1026, 1015
107 10¹ M = 10 M
=
1017102 P = 100 P
c. (10 pts) Write the following with powers of 10: 7 K, 100 E, 21 G
7 K = 7*10³
