Question

1 TB = x MB, where x is:

Select one:

a. 1024

b. 1,000,000

c. 1024 * 1024

d. 1024 * 1024 * 1024

Answer 1

Before answering this question, we must understand the differnce between two widely used notations, namely MiB and MB or (GB and GiB, KB and KiB.......)

i) Notations without i (MB, GB, KB)-: These are multiples of 10

1MB = 10^3KB

ii) Notations with i (MiB, GiB, KiB)-: As computer works on either 0/1, hence International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) approved these notations which work on the multiples of 2

1MiB = 2^10KiB

Here, screenshot shows the representation of storage in MiB

Hence the answer to this question is

1TB =10^3GB

1TB = 10^6MB      [1GB = 10^3MB]

1TB = 1,000,000MB

Option b
