Question 40

The two numbers given below are multiplied using the Booth’s algorithm.

Multiplicand : 0101 1010 1110 1110 
Multiplier: 0111 0111 1011 1101

How many additions/Subtractions are required for the multiplication of the above two numbers?

A
6
B
8
C
10
D
12
Question 40 Explanation: 
Take the multiples and add 0 to the LSB.
Now we have some values defined for pair of bits in Booth’s Algorithm,
00 → 0
11 → 0
01 → -1
10 → 1
Now after adding 0 to the LSB of the multiplier, start traversing from left to right and accordingly put the values defined above.

Hence, total 8 additions / subtractions required.
