It depends on the number representation you use and how much resolution you need. If you use a floating point representation, the stored number can be extremely large but have poor resolution.

If you need to have a resolution of one count and include a zero, then the largest is 2^20 - 1

What is the largest positive number that can be stored using 8 bits?

An N-bit integer holds 2N different values.For an unsigned integer, the range of values is 0..2N-1 thus.For a signed integer using 2s complement, the range is -2N-1..+2N-1-1.Therefore, the largest positive number that can be stored using 8 bits is 255.

What range of unsigned integer numbers can be represented by 8 bits?

An 8-bit unsigned integer can represent values ranging from 0 to 255. This is because, with 8 bits, there are (2^8 = 256) possible combinations of binary digits. Therefore, the smallest value is 0 (all bits are 0) and the largest value is 255 (all bits are 1).


Why is 225 the largest number in bytes?

It isn't. The largest unsigned number that can be stored in one byte (8 bits) is 2^8 - 1 = 255.


What is the largest decimal number that can be represented using 6 binary bits?

The largest unsigned integer is 26 - 1 = 63, giving the range 0 to 63; The largest signed integer is 25 - 1 = 31, giving the range -32 to 31.


What is largest positive value that may be store in 20 bits?

The largest positive value that can be stored in 20 bits is calculated using the formula for the maximum value of an unsigned binary number, which is (2^n - 1), where (n) is the number of bits. For 20 bits, this is (2^{20} - 1 = 1,048,576 - 1 = 1,048,575). Therefore, the largest positive value that can be stored in 20 bits is 1,048,575.


What is the largest value that can be stored in 64 bits represented in hexadecimal?

0xffffffffffffffff As an unsigned 64-bit integer, this represents the value 18,446,744,073,709,551,615. However, as a signed 64-bit integer, this only represents the value -1. The signed range is -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 making 0x7fffffffffffffff the largest possible positive value, and 0x8000000000000000 the smallest possible negative value.
