Evaluate \(1011_{two}\) + \(1101_{two}\) + \(1001_{two}\) - \(111_{two}\)

A.

10001\(_{two}\)

B.

11001\(_{two}\)

C.

110001\(_{two}\)

D.

11010\(_{two}\)

E.

10001\(_{two}\)

Correct answer is D

Convert each value to decimal (base 10)

\(1011_{two}\) → 11

+ \(1101_{two}\) → 13

+ \(1001_{two}\) → 9

- \(111_{two}\) → 7

: 11 + 13 + 9 - 7 = 26

26 → \(11010_{two}\)
