Question

When 8 bits are combined, the resulting unit of storage is known by which of the following names?
A. Byte
B. Nibble
C. Kilobyte
D. None of the Above

Answer 1

Answer:

OPTION A ( Byte )

Explanation:

The combination of 8 bits is called byte .

The combination of 1024 such bytes is called kilobyte .

The combination of 1024 such kilobytes is called megabyte .

The combination of 1024 such megabytes is called gigabyte .

The combination of 1024 such gigabytes is called terabyte .

The combination of 1024 such terabytes is called petabyte .

The combination of 1024 such petabytes is called exabyte .

The combination of 1024 such exabytes is called zettabyte .

The combination of 1024 such zettabytes is called yottabyte.

All these are taken to the power of 2 .

For example :

1 kilobyte = 2¹⁰ bytes .

1 megabyte = 2²⁰ bytes .

1 gigabyte = 2³⁰ bytes .

1 terabyte = 2⁴⁰ bytes

1 petabyte = 2⁵⁰ bytes

1 exabyte = 2⁶⁰ bytes

1 zettabyte = 2⁷⁰ bytes

1 yottabyte = 2⁸⁰ bytes .

Answer 2

Here is your answer

A. Byte

8 bits is called byte .

Larger measures include:

kilobyte (KB) equal to 1,024 bytes

megabyte (MB) equal to 1,024 KB

gigabyte (GB) equal to 1,024 MB

terabyte (TB) equal to 1,024 GB

petabyte (PB) equal to 1,024 TB

exabyte (EB) equal to 1,024 PB

Other capacity measurements to know are:

kilobit (Kb)

megabit (Mb)

gigabit (Gb)

terabit (Tb)

petabit (Pb)

exabit (Eb)
