Sample Questions

1multiple choice

How many bits are required to represent one hexadecimal digit?

Show answer

4

Hexadecimal has base 16, and 16 = 2⁴. Therefore, 4 bits are required to represent one hexadecimal digit. Each group of 4 binary digits represents one hex digit.

2multiple correct

Which of the following are characteristics of UNICODE? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

It can represent characters from all written languages, It is a superset of ASCII, Common encodings include UTF-8, UTF-16

UNICODE can represent characters from all written languages, is a superset of ASCII (values 0-128 same as ASCII), and has common encodings like UTF-8 and UTF-16. It doesn't use only 7 bits and supports much more than English.

3multiple choice

What is the octal equivalent of binary number (101110)₂?

Show answer

(56)₈

Group binary digits in groups of 3 from right: 101 110. Convert each group: 101₂ = 5₈, 110₂ = 6₈. Therefore, (101110)₂ = (56)₈.

4true false

The decimal number 255 is represented as FF in hexadecimal. True or False?

Show answer

True

255 ÷ 16 = 15 remainder 15. 15 ÷ 16 = 0 remainder 15. In hexadecimal, 15 is represented as F. Reading remainders from bottom to top: FF. So (255)₁₀ = (FF)₁₆.
