(4E)BASE 16=(1001110)BASE 2

E IN HEXADECIMAL NUMBER IS=14
AND 14=1110
THUS ANS IS 1001110

Here's the explanation:

Let's carefully convert 4E₁₆ to binary step by step.

Break each hexadecimal digit into 4-bit binary:
4₁₆ → 0100₂
E₁₆ → 1110₂ (since E = 14 in decimal)
Combine the binary for both digits: 4E₁₆ → 0100 1110₂
So, the correct binary representation is: 01001110₂
From the given options, the closest match (ignoring leading zeros) is: 1001110₂.
