IEEE Floating-point fromat

Thank you for reading the thread.

I have been studying "How a floating point number is stored in 32 bits".

I know a way to find the exponent numbers. But I don't know a way to find the mantissa values.

Why the mantissa of 6.625 would be 010000011( this is the exponent)01101010000000000000000( the mantissa)??

please help me.

and sorry for a lot of posts I made.
