FLOAT: 32-bit IEEE floating point number spanning 2
registers. The lower-addressed register is the
high order half (i.e., contains the exponent).

Formula Explanation:
C4E11DB9 (hex) 11000100 11100001 00011101 10111001
(binary)
The sign of the mantissa (and therefore the number) is 1, which represents a nega-
tive value.
The Exponent is 10001001 (binary) or 137 decimal.
