One byte is usually 8 bits, but some computer systems used a 9-bit byte. A bit is a Binary digit. (0 or 1)
And a nibble is a 4-bit byte. Sometimes used in simple machines such as washing machine or toaster.
Back in early telegraphy days, paper tape was used for machine telegraphy. Its data was represented by 5 holes that could be punched across the width of a paper tape. Thus one could have 25 (= 32) characters.
This became supplanted by paper tape with 8 possible holes in a row. Thus 28 different characters could be represented. (256 characters).
A version of this was called ASCII code, American Standard Code for Information Interchange. And the electro-mechanical Teletype was the apparatus commonly used. This was in the (relatively recent) days before alpha-numeric symbols on an CRT screen.
Anyway, hence the 8-bit Byte.
What else can I help you with?
How many bytes is 1 gigabytes?
1 GB is precisely 1,073,741,824 bytes.
Are 941 megabytes equal to one gigabyte?
No Mega means million, Giga is one thousand times bigger. (miljard or billion depending on which side of the Atlantic you are on)
How many MBytes are in a GByte?
1024 bytes = 1 KB 1024 KB = 1 MB 1024 MB = 1 GB etc.
How many kilometers equal 1 mega meter?
does 1 meter equal 1000 kilolmeters
What is the largest memory measurement for acomputer?
A yottabyte. (1 octillion bytes)
Is 4 bytes equal to 4 bits?
No. The "byte" is much larger: A "byte" consists of 8 "bits". 4 bytes would equal 32 bits (4 x 8)
How many bytes can be addressed by a 16-bit value?
2 bytes because 8-bits is equal to one 1 byte
1 frame equal to how many bit?
1 frame= 1000 bytes where, 1 byte= 8 bits therefore, 1 frame=8000 bits
8388608 bits is equal to how many MB?
8,388,608 bits = 1,048,576 bytes = 1.048 megabytes (MB) = 1 mebibyte (MiB).
How many bits are there in 25 bytes?
1 byte has 8 bits. so 25 bytes have 200 bits.
How many gigabytes equal 1 bit?
One gigabyte is roughy one billion bytes. One byte has eight bits, so a gigabyte would equal about eight billion bits.
What does 1 kilobite equal?
1 kilobyte = 1,024 bytes = 8,192 bits
How many bits are there in 4096 bytes?
1 byte = 8 bits (4096 bytes) x (8 bits/byte) = 32768 bits
How many bits equals 2 Kb?
1 byte = 8 bits 1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes = 8192 bits 2 kilobytes = 2048 bytes = 16384 bits
How many bits are in 8 megabytes?
1 K = 1,024 bytes 1,024 K = 1 MB (megabyte) or 1,048,576 bytes 8 MB = 1,048,576 bytes x 8 = 8,388,608 bytes 8,388,608 bytes x 8 = 67,108,864 bits ( There are 8 bits to 1 byte. )
How many bytes are there in 32 bits?
A byte is 8 bits. Thus, 32 bytes is 256 bits. Bits are each either a single 1 or 0. By statistics, you then have 2256 possible combinations. In other words, 32 bytes can represent any number from 1 to 1.15792089 × 1077.
How many bits make up a MB?
1 MB= 1024 KB * 1024 BYTES = 1048576 Bytes as we know 8 bits = 1 byte so 1048576 bytes=1048576*8=8388608 bits. so 1MB=8388608 bits
