Answer:

F is assigned the value of 15

[tex]74AF_{16} = 29871_{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hexadecimal number system is base 16 and it contain the following numbers:

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F

A has a value of 10

B has a value of 11

C has a value of 12

D has a value of 13

E has a value of 14

F has a value of 15

By completing the expanded notation:

[tex](7*4096) + (4*256) + (A * 16) + (F *1)\\= (7*4096) + (4*256) + (10 * 16) + (15 *1)\\= 28672 + 1024 + 160 + 15\\= 29871[/tex]
