Answer:

1111 1111 1111 0000 0011 1111 1111 1100

Is the resulting pattern the correct representation for -16/4? No. The result represents a large
positive number, not -4

Shift Right Arithmetic

A right shift logical can not be used to divide a negative integer by two. The problem is that a shift
right logical moves zeros into the high order bit. This is desirable in some situations, but not for
dividing negative integers where the high order bit is the "sign bit." An arithmetic right shift
replicates the sign bit as needed to fill bit positions:
