Why should floating point numbers be stored in normalised form?
Less risk of rounding errors.

State two advantages of using a normalised representation.
It is more precise for the given number of bits.

A larger mantissa allows for a greater range of numbers.
A smaller exponent is less accurate.

Q1 (b) (ii)

in a 265colour image, each byte can represent 256 different colour codes
2 squared = 256 and there are 8 bits in a byte

Q1 (a) (iii)

in this question I forgot to mention the staircase/ pixilation effect after a bitmap image is enlarged
