4. Find Subtraction of 1256 and 2702 using 7's complementSolution:7's complement subtraction steps :
1. At first, find 7's complement of the B(subtrahend).
2. Then add it to the A(minuend).
3. If the final carry over of the sum is 1, then it is dropped and 1 is added to the result.
4. If there is no carry over, then 7's complement of the sum is the final result and it is negative.
Here A = 1256, B = 2702.
Find A - B = ? using 7's complement
First find 7's complement of B = 2702
Note : 7's complement of a number is obtained by subtracting all bits from 7777
Step-1: 7's complement of 2702 is obtained by subtracting each digit from 7777
Step-2: Now Add this 5075 to 1256
Step by step solution of 1256 + 5075 = 6353
Write the numbers, so that each digit lines up vertically
Step-1 :
`=6_8+5_8`
`=6_10+5_10`
`=11_10`
`=8xx1+3`
`=13_8`
Write the 3 in the sum place and carry the 1 to the next carry place
Step-2 :
`=1+5_8+7_8`
`=1+5_10+7_10`
`=13_10`
`=8xx1+5`
`=15_8`
Write the 5 in the sum place and carry the 1 to the next carry place
Step-3 :
`=1+2_8+0_8`
`=1+2_10+0_10`
`=3_10`
`=3_8`
Write the 3 in the sum place
Step-4 :
`=1_8+5_8`
`=1_10+5_10`
`=6_10`
`=6_8`
Write the 6 in the sum place
Here there is no carry, answer is - (7's complement of the sum obtained 6353)
Note : 7's complement of a number is obtained by subtracting all bits from 7777
Step-1: 7's complement of 6353 is obtained by subtracting each digit from 7777
So answer is -1424
