LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET IN TLE9 (CSS)
PERFORMING MENSURATION AND CALCULATION
I. LEARNING SKILLS
At the end of this learning activity, the learners will be able to:
• select measuring instruments,
• carry out measurements and calculation, and
• maintain measuring instruments.
II. INTRODUCTORY CONCEPT
Exact measurement is an absolute must for everyone who wants to
guarantee precise and first-class work. That is why the best measuring
instruments are necessary. This learning activity sheet is designed to help
you measure different storage devices applying the four (4) basic
mathematical operations. It also helps you carry out proper mensuration and
calculation.
MEASURING INSTRUMENTS
1. Multimeter (VOM) - A multimeter or a multi tester, also known as a VOM, is
an electronic measuring instrument that combines several measurement
functions in one unit. A typical multimeter can measure voltage (Volt),
current (Ampere), and resistance (Ohm). Analog multimeter uses a micro
ammeter with a moving pointer to display readings.
Voltmeter – is an instrument for measuring electric potential in volts. (Ex. 220 volts)
Ohmmeter – is an instrument for measuring electrical resistance. (Ex.20 Ohms)
Milliammeter – is an instrument for measuring electric current in amperes.
(Ex. 15 amperes)
Types of Multi-meter or Multi-tester:
1. Analog Multi-meter or multi-tester (VOM) - uses a
microammeter with a moving pointer to display readings.
2
2. Digital multimeters (DMM, DVOM) - have a numeric
display, and may also show a graphical bar representing
the measured value.
3. Cable Tester - is an electronic device used to verify the
electrical connections in a signal cable or other wired
assembly. Basic cable testers are continuity testers that
verify the existence of a conductive path between ends of
the cable and verify the correct wiring of connectors on
the cable.
4. Loopback, or loop-back adapter - refers to the
routing of electronic signals, digital data streams, or
flows of items back to their source without intentional
processing or modification. This is primarily a means of
testing/ measuring the communications infrastructure.
5. Logic Probe - is a hand-held test probe used for
analyzing and troubleshooting the logical states (boolean 0
or 1) of a digital circuit.

CARRYING OUT MEASUREMENTS AND CALCULATIONS
Definition of Terms
Binary – is the primary language for computers that is made up of only two numbers: 0
and 1. (Computer Hope, 2019)
Binary Prefix – is used to represent the quantity in terms of byte or bit in computing.
Decimal – is a base 10 number system (Yadav, 2018)
Bit (b) – is short for binary digit, either 0 or 1. (Computer Hope, 2020)
Byte (B) – is a unit of computer information consisting of eight (8) bits
Giga Hertz (GHz) – is also known as clock rate or clock speed of the processor.
(Computer Hope, 2018)

How to Read Binary
Binary is a base-2 number system, where the number two (2) is raised
by an exponent (n-1). The exponent is denoted by the digits’ place (n) and
subtracted by 1, wherein it increases as you move through each position
starting from the right going to the left.
For example, number 2 on the first position, so that is 2 raised by n-1, wherein n=1.
2(n-1) = 2(1-1) = 20
Considering the given table below, the first position is the rightmost cell and
the leftmost position is the last cell.
Position 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
(n-1)
Expone 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20
nt
2(Position)
Value 12 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
8
Note: The first place should be 1 but since it is (n-1) subtracted by 1, it
becomes 0 The first value is equivalent to 1 because 20 is equal to 1.
Note: Any value with an exponent of 0 is always equal to 1.
The second value is 21 is 2 because it is just 2 itself multiplied by 1.
The third value is 4 because 22 = 2 x 2 = 4, 23 = 8 because 23 = 2 x 2 x 2 =
8, and so on and so forth
In binary system, 1 is equal to ON/TRUE and 0 is OFF/FALSE.
To read a binary number, get the turn - ON value/s only and sum it up, no
need to include the turned-OFF value/s. For example:
Value 12 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
8
ON/OFF 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
0000 0001 = 1
Get the sum: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 1
Or simply get the turn - ON value which
is 1. Multiple values example:
Value 12 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
8
ON/OFF 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1
0000 0101 = 5
4
The binary number 0000 0101 is equivalent to 5 because the turned-ON
values are: (ALWAYS START FROM THE RIGHT)
1 and 4
Then get the sum: 1 + 4 = 5
Number 5 and the “Value” in the tables are examples of decimal numbers,
the number system that we have known since we learned how to count
numbers.
For humans, but for computers,
us
1 0000 0001
+ 2 + 0000 0010
3 0000 0011
Note: Each group of eight bits is known as a byte. 8 bits = 1 byte
That is how the computer represented the letters and numbers, and all the
data that you can see in the computer like images and videos.
Decimal to Binary Conversion
Rule: If the fraction is = ½ or .5, it is equivalent to 1.
In converting a decimal number to binary, all you have to do is:
1. Divide the number by 2.
2. Write the quotient and multiply the remainder by 2.
3. Divide the remainder by 2.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you get a quotient of 0.
5. Read the values of the remainder from the bottom to top. Write the
values to get the binary value of the decimal number.
Example:
Convert 19 to binary
Decimal number / 2 Quotient Remainder
19 / 9 1
2
9/2 4 1
4/2 2 0
2/2 1 0
1/2 0 1
19 = 10011
Note: A byte has 8 binary digits. Add 0s from the left to complete the 8 digits.
5
The final answer is 19 = 00010011.
Checking:
There are two ways to check if the conversion is accurate.
Method 1: Binary Table
1. Create a binary table.
2. Input the binary value into the table properly. Each digit should be
entered on the correct column starting from right to the left.
Decimal 12 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
8
Binary 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1
State
3. Then add the decimal values with
1. 16 + 2 + 1 = 19
Method 2: Binary to Decimal Conversion
1. Multiply the bits with its corresponding
value. Note: Always start from the right.
2. Get the sum.
(1 x 1) + (1 x 2) + (0 x 4) + (0 x 8) + (1 x 16) + (0 x 32) + (0 x 64) + (0 x 128)
1 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 16 + 0 + 0 + 0
= 19
Therefore: 19 = 0001 0011
Binary Prefixes
Also called as prefix multipliers consisting of a one-letter abbreviation and
the prefix it stands for.
Unit Symbol Power of 2 (bytes) VALUE in Bytes
Kilobyte KB 21 1,204
0
Megabyte MB 22 1,048,576
0
Gigabyte GB 23 1,073,741,824
0
Terabyte TB 24 1,009,511,627,77
0 6
For example:
1 kilobyte = 210 bytes
6
210 bytes = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 bytes
210 bytes = 1,024 bytes
Therefore: 1 KB = 1,024 bytes
