How is a floating-point number stored?

The computer allocates 32-bit memory for storing a float value, using IEEE 754 floating point conversion. With a positive value, the sign bit is 0. The integer and fraction are converted to binary, and the biased exponent is calculated and represented in the binary format. The final binary representation is 0 10000100 00001001001110110110010.
