Data Storage (bits and bytes)

In computing, a bit is

• 8 bytes
• a single    0 or 1     on or off

A byte is

• 8 bits
• 4 bits

A kilobyte is

• 1024 bits

• 1024 bytes

How many megabytes are in 1 gigabyte?

• 1024
• 1
• 1024 x 10 = 10240

A kilobyte is usually rounded to 1000 bytes. But actually it is _____ bytes:

• 1024
• 512
• 1048
• 9600

A gigabyte consists of 1024:

• megabytes
• terabytes
• kilobytes
• nibbles

The following is a correct order of units of storage from lowest to highest:

• a bit, a nibble, a byte, a kilobyte, a megabyte, a gigabyte, a terabyte
• a bit, a byte, a nibble, a kilobyte, a megabyte, a gigabyte, a terabyte
• a bit, a nibble, a byte, a megabyte, a kilobyte, a gigabyte, a terabyte
• a byte, a bit, a nibble, a megabyte, a kilobyte, a gigabyte, a terabyte
