Question - Identifying the Equivalent Floating-Point Representation

Solution:

The number given in the image is \(2 \times 10^{-5}\).

To express this number in the decimal form, we shift the decimal point 5 places to the left because the exponent is -5.

Therefore, the equivalent floating-point representation is:

\(0.00002\), which can be rewritten as \(0.2 \times 10^{-4}\).

The correct answer is \(0.2 \times 10^{-4}\).
