II. INTRODUCTORY CONCEPT
Carry Out Measurements and Calculation
DIGITAL REPRESENTATION
Information is represented and stored in a digital binary format within a computer. The
term bit is an abbreviation of binary digit and represents the smallest piece of data.
A bit can have only two possible values, a one digit (1) or a zero digit (0). A bit can be
used to represent the state of something that has two states.
CONVERT DECIMAL NUMBERS TO BINARY
To convert a decimal number to binary, all you have to do is divide the number by 2.
Get the quotient and the remainder. Bring down the quotient, divide it by 2, and get the
quotient and remainder again. Do it repeatedly until the quotient results to 0. Copy the
remainder from bottom to top, and that is the binary equivalent.

Example: 30
Quotient Remainder
30/2 15 0
15/2 7 1
7/2 3 1
3/2 1 1
1/2 0 1
Checking
1 1 1 1 0 Multiplier
16 8 4 2 1 Equivalent
16 8 4 2 0 Result
16 + 8 + 4 + 2 = 30
CALCULATING DATA STORAGE
While a bit is the smallest representation of data, the most basic unit of digital storage
is the byte. A byte is 8 bits and is the smallest unit of measure (UOM) used to represent
data storage capacity. When referring to storage space, we use the terms bytes (B),
kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB), and terabytes (TB)
One kilobyte is a little more than one thousand bytes, specifically 1,024. A megabyte
represents more than a million bytes or 1,048,576. A gigabyte is 1,073,741,824 bytes.
A terabyte is 1,099,511,627,776.
Here is another conversion:
1 byte = 8bits
1 kilobyte = 1,024 bytes
1 megabyte = 1,024 kilobytes
1 gigabyte = 1,024 megabyte
1terabyte = 1,024 gigabyte
When something is represented digitally, the greater the detail, the greater the
number of bits needed to represent it. A low-resolution picture from a digital camera will
use around 360KB, and a high-resolution picture could use 2 MB or more.
Examples of components and devices that use byte storage include: random access
memory (RAM), hard disk drive space, CDs, DVDs, and MP3 players. CDs have a data
storage capacity of approximately 700 MB. DVDs have a data storage capacity of
approximately 4.3 GB on a single-layer disc, and approximately 8.5 GB on a dual-layer
disc. BDs have a storage capacity of 25 GB on a single-layer disc, and 50 GB on a dual-
layer disc. Once we know the size of a file or folder, it is possible to determine the
number of bytes being used.
Example:
A file is 25KB in size
1KB = 1,024 bytes
25 x 1,024 = 25,600Bytes in a 25KB file

If this 25KB file is stored in a 1MB folder, how many files can be stored in that
folder?
1MB = 1,048,576 bytes 25KB = 25,600Bytes
1,048,576 bytes/25,600Bytes = 40.96 files can be stored in a 1MB
