QUESTION

One Gigabyte is equal to?

OPTIONS

(A) 1024 byte
(B) 1024 MB
(C) 1024 KB
(D) 240 byte

ANSWER

(B) 1024 MB

EXPLANATION

One Gigabyte (GB) is equal to 1024 Megabytes (MB) under the binary convention commonly used in computer-memory questions. Since 1 MB = 1024 KB and 1 KB = 1024 bytes, the calculation is: 1 GB = 1024 MB = 1024 × 1024 KB = 1024 × 1024 × 1024 bytes = 230 bytes = 1,073,741,824 bytes. Therefore, option (B) 1024 MB is correct. Option (A) 1024 bytes equals 1 KB, option (C) 1024 KB equals 1 MB, and option (D) 240 bytes corresponds to 1 TB, not 1 GB.
