DEVELOPMENT
1. Calculate how many bytes a document that is 69 Kb occupies.
1024bytes * 69kb = 70656bytes
2. How many bits are 68 bytes?
8bits* 68bytes = 544bits
3. How many Bytes are 512 bits?
8bytes/512bits = 64bytes
4. How many MB is 3 GB?
1024MB * 3GB = 3072MB
5. How many KB is 2 GB?
2gb*1024 = 2048*1024 = 2097152
6. How many GB is 4096 MB?
4096MB / 1024GB = 4MB
7. I have a DVD of 4,812.8 megabytes, how many gigabytes do I have with this amount?
4,812.8/1024=4.7gb
8. How many 700 Mb CDs will I need to equal the capacity of a 4.7 Gb DVD? 700 * 4.7= 3290 /
700= 5CD
9. Two CDs with music in MP 3 format, each with 700 Mb recorded. What size memory card will I
need to copy music?
700mb*1024gb=716800
10. I have the following pendrives: 4Gb, 3Gb and one 512Mb. Which of the pendrives is the most
suitable for downloading videos from the Web, in MP4 format, if all the videos have a total of
3,145,728.Kb?
3,145,728KB / 1024 = 3072, that is, the 3G pendrive
11. In the PC There are 100 musical themes of 3,072Kb each. Will I be able to download the songs
to the 512 Mb MP 3 player?
3072KB*100=307200 Mb, meaning that the music tracks cannot be downloaded to the player as they
would cover 3072 megabytes
12. In my documents, I have the following files: Juliana.doc of 1024 Kb. Carlos.RTF of 2048 Bytes.
Customer guide.doc of 5120Kb. DVD
1 Software. NRG 2048 MB DVD. 2 NRG Software of 3072 Mb What is the total information in Mb and
Gb? What support
magnetic will I need to save the information?
1024 / 1024 = 1mb
2048/1024= 2mb
5120/1024= 5mb
2048+3072+1+2+5=5128mb > we would need a USB memory as magnetic support
5GB
