Answer :
Explanation :
Anything larger and the computer would need to break the number into smaller pieces. 16-bit is a computer hardware device or software program capable of transferring 16 bits of data at a time. Today, 16-bit hardware and software has been replaced by 32-bit and 64-bit alternatives, which give the computer more memory to work with; increasing overall performance. For example, early computer processors (e.g., 8088 and 80286) were 16-bit processors, meaning they were capable of working with 16-bit binary numbers (decimal number up to 65,535).

Answer : 3. "9"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 9 Explanation: The given expression can be simplified as 6 ÷ 2 (1 + 2) The expression can be simplified further by the order of operations, using BODMAS rule. First evaluate Parentheses/Brackets, then evaluate Exponents/Orders, then evaluate Multiplication-Division, and finally evaluate Addition-Subtraction. Now, the expression becomes 6 ÷ 2 (3) According to the order of operations, division and multiplication have the same precedence, so the correct order is to evaluate from left to right. First take 6 and divide it by 2, and then multiply by 3. 6 ÷ 2 × 3 = 3 × 3 = 9 But not 6÷2×3 = 6 ÷ 6 = 1 Hence, 6 ÷ 2 (1 + 2) = 9.
