Question

Convert the unsigned 8-bit hexadecimal to unsigned 8-bit binary: 0x80.

Answer 1

To convert 0x80 to unsigned 8-bit binary, follow these steps: remove the '0x' prefix, convert 80 to binary using the place value method, and the resulting binary representation is 10000000.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the unsigned 8-bit hexadecimal number 0x80 to unsigned 8-bit binary, follow these steps:

1. Write down the hexadecimal number, which is 0x80.
2. Remove the '0x' prefix to get the value 80.
3. Convert the value 80 to binary. Since it's an 8-bit number, you can use the place value method. Begin with the largest power of 2 (2^7 = 128) and see if it can be subtracted from 80. In this case, you can subtract 128, so the first bit in the binary representation is 1. Subtracting 128 from 80 leaves you with 80 - 128 = -48, which means that the remaining bits will be 0.
4. The resulting unsigned 8-bit binary representation is 10000000.
