Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Step-by-Step Calculation:
Using 7's complement
Step 1: Find the 7's complement of (6100)8 by subtracting each digit from 7.
Step 2: Add 1 to the 7's complement to get the 8's complement.
Since we are in base 8 (Octal):
7 + 1 = (8)8 = 0 with a carry of 1.
7 + 1 (carry) = (8)8 = 0 with a carry of 1.
6 + 1 (carry) = 7.
Bring down the 1.
Resulting in: (1700)8
