Consider the following 5-bit floating point representation based on the IEEE floating point format: • There is a sign bit in the most significant bit. • The next two bits are the exponent. The exponent bias is 1. • The last two bits are the significand. The rules are like those in the IEEE standard (normalized, denormalized, representation of o, infinity, and NAN). The floating point format encodes numbers in a form: (-1)$xmx2 where m is the mantissa and E is the biased exponent. The table below enumerates the entire non-negative range for this 5-bit floating point representation. Here are the instructions for each field: • E: The integer value of the exponent. . m: The fractional value of the mantissa. Your answer must be expressed as a fraction of the form x/4.
