Which of the following is the most efficient to perform arithmetic operations on the numbers?
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (C) 2's complement
Explanation
In 1's complement there are two representations of zero: –0 (11111111) and +0 (00000000). In 2's complement there is only one representation of 0 (00000000), so 2's complement is the most efficient for performing arithmetic operations on numbers.
