Solution

To find the 8-bit two's complement of -50, follow these steps:

  1. Write down the binary representation of 50. The binary of 50 is 00110010.

  2. Find the one's complement of the binary number. The one's complement of 00110010 is 11001101.

  3. Add 1 to the one's complement to get the two's complement. The two's complement of 11001101 is 11001110.

So, the 8-bit two's complement representation of -50 is 11001110.
