8. 10111 is the two's complement representation of:

  1. -23
  2. -9
  3. -7
  4. +22
  5. +7

1 is WRONG. Since +23 = 010111 (first digit must be a zero, in 2's complement), how can -23 = 10111? Hint: the value represented by 10111 is the negative (since the leading bit is a 1) of the 2's complement of 10111.
