Question

Program to multiply a number by the constant 6.

a) LD R1, six
b) LD R2, number
c) AND R3, R3
d) ST R1, result

Answer 1

To multiply a number by a constant 6 in a program, you can load the constant and the number, clear a register for the result, and then store the multiplication result.

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply a number by a constant 6 in a program, you can follow these steps:

1. Load the value 6 into a register, for example, R1: LD R1, 6
2. Load the number you want to multiply into another register, for example, R2: LD R2, number
3. Clear another register to store the result, for example, R3: AND R3, R3
4. Store the multiplication of the number and the constant 6 into the result register: ST R1, result

These steps will multiply a number by the constant 6 in a program by loading the constant and the number, clearing a register for the result, and then storing the multiplication result.
