What is the decimal equivalent of the binary number 10011.011?

Correct answer: 19.375

Explanation

Converting a binary number with a fractional part to its decimal equivalent involves summing the products of each bit and its corresponding power of 2. For the integer part, the powers are positive (2^0, 2^1, etc.), and for the fractional part, the powers are negative (2^-1, 2^-2, etc.).
