Separate the mantissa and exponent.
The given floating-point binary number is 11101011.
It is stored using 5 bits for the mantissa and 3 bits for the exponent.
Mantissa:
Exponent:Convert the mantissa to its denary (decimal) equivalent.
The mantissa is in 2's complement form. The binary point is assumed after the first bit (sign bit).
So, the mantissa is .
Since the MSB is 1, it's a negative number.
Value
Value .Convert the exponent to its denary equivalent.
The exponent is in 2's complement form.
