1

=11001

Checking the answer;

11001

=1*2^4+1*2^3+0*2*2+0*1+1*2^0

=1*16+1*8+0+0+1*1

=16+8+0+0+2

=25

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

25 as binary number is

11001

1×2⁴ + 1×2³ + 0×2² + 0×2¹ + 1×2⁰ = 16 + 8 + 1 = 25

25×2 = 50 = 11001 × 2 = 110010

multiplying a binary number by 2 is the save effect as multiplying a normal decimal number by 10 : all digits move one position to the left, and a 0 is put into the empty right position.

and so, we see

110P = 110010

P = 010

FYI : you normally don't mix binary and decimal numbers. if one of the numbers is binary, then all the others have to be binary too.

so, the problem should have looked like

110P/10 = 11001

110P = 11001×10 = 110010

P = 010
