Given below are two statements with reference to different number systems:
Statement I: (D6C1)16 = (54977)10
Statement II: (41819)10 = (A35B)16
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2023 Home Science Question Paper (13-Dec-2023) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Both Statement I and Statement II are true.

 Let's evaluate each of the statements separately to determine their validity.

Statement I: (D6C1)16 = (54977)10

To verify this statement, we need to convert the hexadecimal number (D6C1)16 to its decimal equivalent.

A hexadecimal (base 16) number has digits 0-9 and A-F, where A=10, B=11, ..., F=15 in decimal.

The conversion from hexadecimal to decimal is done using the formula:

\(N = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} a_i \times 16^i\), where \(a_i\) is the digit at index \(i\)

  1. The rightmost digit (1) is at \(16^0\)\(1 \times 16^0 = 1\)
  2. The next digit (C) is at \(16^1\)\(12 \times 16^1 = 192\) (since C=12 in decimal)
  3. The next digit (6) is at \(16^2\)\(6 \times 16^2 = 1536\)
  4. The leftmost digit (D) is at \(16^3\)\(13 \times 16^3 = 53248\) (since D=13 in decimal)

Summing these values gives:

\(53248 + 1536 + 192 + 1 = 54977\)

Thus, Statement I is true.

Statement II: (41819)10 = (A35B)16

To verify this statement, we need to convert the decimal number (41819)10 to hexadecimal.

The method involves dividing the number by 16 and keeping track of the remainders.

  1. 41819 divided by 16 equals 2613 with a remainder of 11. The remainder 11 corresponds to B in hex.
  2. 2613 divided by 16 equals 163 with a remainder of 5.
  3. 163 divided by 16 equals 10 with a remainder of 3.
  4. 10 divided by 16 equals 0 with a remainder of 10. The remainder 10 corresponds to A in hex.

Reading the remainders from last to first gives the hexadecimal equivalent: (A35B)16.

Thus, Statement II is also true.

Conclusion

Both Statement I and Statement II are true.
