In 2's complement representation the number 11100101 represents the decimal number
+37
-31
+27
-27
Answer: Option
Explanation:

A = 11100101. Therefore A = 00011010 and A' = A + 1 = 00011011 = 16 + 8 + 2 + 1 = 27. Therefore A = -27.

At all many have a doubt for the negative sign doubt so I ll try to solve it.

In digital electronics the MSB bit (the leftmost bit) is the sign bit and its negative if it is set to 1 or if it is set to 0 it is positive. So look at the MSB perform the operation and represent it as positive or negative depending on the sign bit.

If carry is generated find 2's complement of the answer to get final result,

If carry is not generated give negative sign and write the value.

Negative numbers are always represented in 2's compliment form. That's why the original no must be negative.

How it comes in negative.

The MSB holds the sign.

2's complement means only negitive number. If we take 2's complement of 011 then it means negitive of 011.

A = 11100101.
Therefore A = 00011010 and A' = A + 1 = 00011011 = 16 + 8 + 2 + 1 = 27.
Therefore A = -27.

2's com -11100101. Then 1's com is 11100101-1=1100100.

Then the required binary no is 0011011. According to binary to decimal conversion the position value is 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1 here binary 1 is present in 16+8+2+1=27.

The first no 1 indicates the -ve number.

Yes the first num indicates the negative number so the two 's complement must be a positive number right.
