This and ‘the companion Algorithms, Programming and Logic Workbook replace the previous Computer Science Workbook and are designed to complement the second edition of the Student's Book and support the Cambridge IGCSE, IGCSE (9-1) and 0 Level Computer Science syllabuses (0478/0984/2210). ‘The aim of this Workbook is to provide you with further opportunity to practise the skills and test the knowledge and understanding you have acquired through using the first six chapters of the Combridge TGCSE and 0 Level Computer Science Second Edition Student's Book. It is designed as a ‘write-in’ book to supplement your learning of different topics as you work through each chapter of the Student's. Book and can be used either for home study or in class. The Workbook is intended to be sufficiently flexible to suit whatever you feel is the best approach according to your needs. ‘The chapters in this Workbook have the same names as those in the Student's Book and reflect the theory topics in the Student’s Book. ‘Cambridge I5CSE an eve Computer Scone Computer Stems Morkbook Data representation 1 Convert the denary number 165 into: a binary b hexadecimal 2 a Convert the following binary number into denary: 01110110 Convert the following hexadecimal number into denary: SF © Convert the Following binary number into hexadecimal: 101011000100 Cambridge CSE and 0 Level Computer Science Compe 1 Data representation Convert the following hexadecimal number into binary: 3eD 3. a How many mebibytes (MiB) of storage would be needed to store 800 photographs each of which are 16 MiB in size?
