Given, 0.06848.
we have to express it in the form of P/{2^n × 2^m} .
change decimal form into fractional form.
0.06848 = 6848/100000
now, 100000 = 2^5 × 5^5
hence, 6848/100000 = 6848/(2^5 × 5^5)
compare this with P/(2^n × 2^m)
so, P = 6848, n = 5 and m = 5
hence, value of n = 5
value of m =5
and value of P = 6848
