Answer 4

Returns x with the bits shifted to the right by y places

Answer 5

x = 5
5 in binary "101"
x >> 2
meaning right shifting by 2 places result "1" in binary which "1" in decimal too

let's look at another example:

x = 1
in binary "1"

x << 5
meaning shifting bits left by 5 places
results in "10000" which is "16" in decimal

another example:

x = 5 which is "101"

evaluating x << 2
we'll get "10100" which is "20" in decimal
