Question

BCD of 82 is

• A. 0110 0010
• B. 0000 0110
• C. 1000 0010
• D. 0110 0110

Hint:

In BCD, convert each decimal digit into its 4-bit binary equivalent, ensuring each digit is represented separately.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: In Binary Coded Decimal (BCD), each decimal digit is represented by a 4-bit binary equivalent.


Step 2: The decimal number 82 is written as two digits: 8 and 2.


Step 3: The binary equivalent of 8 is 1000, and for 2 it is 0010. Therefore, the BCD of 82 is 0110 0010.
