The computer bit is the smallest unit in the computer.
The highest positive integer, the computer of 5 bits can represent is 31.
Given
<em />
<em> ---- the number of bits</em>
<em>The question requires the highest positive value, the computer can represent.</em>
<em />
First, we calculate the count of positive integers (N), the computer can represent.

Substitute 5 for n

Evaluate exponents

Binary representation starts from 0.
So, the highest positive number it can represent (in decimal) is:


<em>Hence, the highest positive integer it can represent is 31.</em>
