Question

Assuming A equals the binary value 11000011 , the result of the bitwise inverse of A is Note: Your answer must be formatted properly or it will be marked wrong by D2L. Just enter the 8-bit binary number that represents the result of the operation. Do not add any spaces, decimal points, commas, or base-2 subscript. Do not delete leading zeros.

Answer 1

The bitwise inverse of the binary number 11000011 is 00111100, which is obtained by flipping each bit of the original number.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the bitwise inverse of a binary number, you flip each bit to its opposite value: 0 becomes 1, and 1 becomes 0. So, if we have the binary number A which equals 11000011, the result of performing the bitwise inverse on A is simply replacing each 1 with a 0, and each 0 with a 1.

The bitwise inverse of 11000011 is therefore 00111100. This is an 8-bit binary number as per the requirement given in the question with no leading zeros omitted.
