An alternative to hexadecimal notation for representing bit patterns is dotted decimal notation in which each byte in the pattern is represented by its base ten equivalent. In turn, these byte representations are separated by periods. For example, 12.5 represents the pattern 0000110000000101 (the byte 00001100 is represented by 12, and 00000101 is represented by 5), and the pattern 100010000001000000000111 is represented by 136.16.7. Represent each of the following bit patterns in dotted decimal notation. 0000111100001111 001100110000000010000000 0000101010100000

Answer:

Represent each of the following bit patterns in decimal notation.

Process for conversion:

1. Divide the bit pattern into equal parts.

2. Every digit represent by base 2 with different powers from 0 to 7.

3. Then match the binary number to respective digits of base 2.

4. Neglect numbers that represent by 0 and add numbers that represent by 1.

5. Then place dot between results obtained from different parts.

Part 1: Answer = 15.15

Part 2: Answer=51.0.128

Part 3: Answer=10.160

See attachment for each part
