A processing device is provided that includes a first, second and third precision operation circuit. The processing device further includes a shared, bit-shifting circuit that is communicatively coupled to the first, second and third precision operation circuits. A method is also provided for multiplying a first and second binary number including adding a first exponent value associated with the first binary number to a second exponent value associated with the second binary number and multiplying a first mantissa value associated with the first binary number to a second mantissa value associated with the second binary number. The method includes performing the exponent adding and mantissa multiplying substantially in parallel. The method further includes performing at least one of adding or subtracting a third binary number to the product. Also provided is a computer readable storage device encoded with data for adapting a manufacturing facility to create an apparatus.
