Answer to Question 1
a) (152)x= (6A)16
 X2 + (5 * X1) + (2 * X0) = (6 * 161) + (10 * 160)
 X2 + 5X + 2 = 106
 X2 + 5X - 104 = 0
 X2 + 13X - 8X – 104 = 0
 X(X + 13) – 8(X + 13) = 0
 (X - 8) (X + 13) = 0
 X = 8 and X = -13
So, the value of X is 8
b) Conversions
1) BED16 to base 3
BED = (B * 162) + (E * 161) + (D * 160)
= 2816 + 224 + 13
=305310
(3053)10 =

BED16 => (11012002)3
2) 3217 into 2-base
3217 = (3 * 72) + (2 * 71) + (1 * 70)
= (162)10
(162)10 =
(162)10 = (10100010)2
3) 1235 into octal representation

(1235) = (2323)8
4) 21.218 into decimal representation
21.218 = (2 * 81) + (1 * 80). (2 * 8-1) + (1 * 7=8-2)
= 17 + 0.25 + 0.015625
= 17.265625
c) i) One’s Complement lowest number of word size 3 bit = 100
One’s Complement lowest number of word size 3 bit = 011
ii) Two’s Complement lowest number of word size 3 bit = 101
Two’s Complement lowest number of word size 3 bit = 011
iii) Signed Magnitude lowest number of word size 3 bit = 111
Signed Magnitude lowest number of word size 3 bit = 011
Question 2
a) L.H.S

The output of L.H.S. and the output of R.H.S. are equal. Hence, both the
combinational circuits are same.
b) Minimized Circuit Diagram
c) X’ + Y’ + XYZ’
= X’ + Y’ + (X’ + Y’ + Z)’ [De Morgan Law]
= (XY (X’ + Y’ + Z))’ [De Morgan Law]
= (XX’Y + XYY’ + XYZ)
= (0 + 0 + XYZ)
= (XYZ)’
= X’ + Y’ + Z’ [De Morgan Law] [Hence, PROVED]
