Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Opcode     Addressing Modes      Register Address      Memory Address

 

(05)bits              (03) bits                       (03) bits                       (21) bits

< --------------------- ----- 32 bit Instruction Format --------------------------------------------------->

6 addressing modes will requires 03 bits in instruction format.

7 Register Address will require 03 bits in instruction format.

There are 2M words in memory.so we need 21 bits for representing memory address.

Out of total 32 bits, 21+03+03 gone just remaining 05 bits shows opcode.

Kindly check the attached image below to see the step by step explanation to the question above.

PLS HURRY!!<br> Look at the image below
Crank

The output will be 10.

The while loop runs until numb is equal to or less than 13.

25 - 5 = 20

20 - 5 = 15

15 - 5 = 10, which is less than 13 so the loop stops and 10 is printed to the screen.
