6. A new language has 15 possible letters, 8 different kinds of punctuation marks  and a blank character. Rahul wants to create two data types, first one which could  store the letters of the language and a second one which could store any character in  the language. The number of bits required to store these two data-types will
respectively be:

A: 3 and 4
B: 4 and 3
C: 4 and 5
D: 3 and 5

7. Parul takes as input two numbers: a and b. a and b can take integer values  between 0 and 255. She stores a, b and c as 1-byte data type. She writes the following code statement to process a and b and put the result in c.
c = a + 2*b
To her surprise her program gives the right output with some input values of a and b,
while gives an erroneous answer for others. For which of the following inputs will it
give a wrong answer?

A: a = 10 b = 200
B: a = 200 b = 10
C: a = 50 b = 100
D: a = 100 b = 50

Correct Answer : 1

8. Prashant takes as input 2 integer numbers, a and b, whose value can be between 0 and 127. He stores them as 7 bit numbers. He writes the following code to process these numbers to produce a third number c.

A: 6 bits
B: 7 bits
C: 8 bits
D: 9 bits

Correct Answer : 3

9. Ankita takes as input 2 integer numbers, a and b, whose value can be between 0 and 31. He stores them as 5 bit numbers. He writes the following code to process these numbers to produce a third number c.
