Answer:

The average number of machine cycles per instruction for this microprocessor is 5.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average number of machine cycles per instruction for this microprocessor, we multiply each number of cycles for it's relative frequency.

We have that:

25% require 2 cycles.

20% require 3 cycles.

17.5% require 4 cycles.

12.5% require 8 cycles.

25% require 12 cycles.

So the average number is:

M = 0.25*2 + 0.2*3 + 0.175*4 + 0.125*8 + 0.25*12 = 5.8

Callie evaluated the expression 0.42 times 4.73 using the steps shown below. 0.42 times 4.73 = 1.26. 1.26 + 29.40 + 168.00 = 198
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Callie multiplied incorrectly

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have 0.42 × 4.73 = 1.9866 then

1.9866 + 29.4 + 168 = 199.3866

Therefore, from the question, we had 0.42 × 4.73 = 1.26 which is incorrect, meaning that Callie multiplied incorrectly

Apparently, Callie multiplied as follows;

0.42 × 3 = 1.26 but what was in the question was

0.42 × 4.73 which is equal to 1.9866.
