c. 0111 1000 x
d. 0010 1010 *

3. How many bytes are in 100 MB of memory?

100 MB = 100 X 220 = 104,857,600 Bytes

4. How many bytes are in 2 GB of memory?

2 GB = 2 X 230 = 231 = 2,147,483,648 Bytes

5. How many MBs are in 5 GB of memory?

5 GB = 5 X 210 MB = 5,120 MB

6. A computer with 3 GB of memory and its word size is 4 bytes:

a. How many bytes are there in the memory?

3 GB = 3 X 230 = 3,221,225,472 Bytes

b. How many locations are there in the memory?


Memory size in bytes 3,221,225,472
Number of locations = = = 805,306,368 locations
word size 4
