234?

(a) 8 bits (b) 7 bits

(c) 9 bits (d) None​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

(1 bit = a single 0 or 1) in assemblies: nybbles (4 bits), bytes (8 bits), words (16 bits), or long words (32 bits).

Place value works for binary just as it does for the decimal system. In ordinary decimal numbers 234 means 2×100 + 3×10 + 4×1 or 2×102 + 3×101 + 4×100.
