Question 8

There are two microprocessors: a 32-bit CPU capable of executing each of 32-bit, 16-bit, and 8-bit long instructions in 1 cycle, and a 16-bit CPU capable of executing each of 16-bit and 8-bit long instructions in 1 cycle. Additionally, the 16-bit CPU can execute a 32-bit long instruction in 2 cycles. When the appearance ratio of 32-bit long instructions is 40%, of 16-bit long instructions is 40%, and of 8-bit long instructions is 20% respectively, what is the percentage improvement in total execution time with the 32-bit CPU compared to the 16-bit CPU? Here, both the 32-bit and 16-bit CPU operate at the same clock speed and have the same performance except for the executable instruction length in 1 cycle.
