Question

To perform the binary _____ operation, you take two binary numbers and compare them one place at a time. If both numbers have a one in both places, then the resultant number is a one. If not, then the resultant number is a zero. A) XOR

B) AND

C) OR

D) NOT

Answer 1

The binary AND operation compares two binary numbers one place at a time, resulting in a one only if both numbers have a one in that place.

Step-by-step explanation:

To perform the binary AND operation, you compare two binary numbers one place at a time. If both numbers have a one in both places, the resultant number is a one. If not, the resultant number is a zero. For example, if we have binary numbers 1101 and 1010, the AND operation would give us the result 1000, because the first two places have ones in both numbers, but the last two places do not.
