Explanation:
To understand the solution we first have to understand why the user chose a 5 bit number. User said numbers lie between 0 to 25 in binary these values will range from 00000 to 11001
Why?
0 in binary is 00000
25 in binary is 11001
Now, it is clear that you need 5 bits to store such a number as the min bits required to store 25 is 5 (as 11001).
Formula for the max number that can be stored per bit is 2X - 1. Where x is the number of bits
The max number that 5 bits can store will be 31 as 11111 = 31.
The range of 3*(X-Y) will be [-75,75]
-75 when X = 0, Y = 25
75 when X = 25, Y = 0
To store 75 in binary we need to calculate the nearest power 2 just greater than 75. Which is 128. Where power of 2 will be 7.
Since the number can also be negative so you need extra binary digital as MSB(Most significant Bit) for negative or positive sign.
So answer is 7 + 1 = 8
