The decimal value 0.25
(A) is equivalent to the binary value 0.1
(B) is equivalent to the binary value 0.01
(C) is equivalent to the binary value 0.00111….
(D) cannot be represented precisely in binary


Answer: (B)

Explanation: We have 0.2510

0.25 * 2 = 0.50          0 (whole part)

0.50 * 2 = 1.00          1 (whole part)

 

So, 0.2510 = 0.012

Thus, B is the correct choice.
