0. A computer has main memory of 960 Kbytes. What is the exact number of bytes contained in this memory?

  • Option : C
  • Explanation : The main memory in a computer is called Random Access Memory (RAM). This is the part of the computer that stores operating system software, software applications and other information for the central processing unit (CPU) to have fast and direct access when needed to perform tasks. Kilobyte (KB) is a common measurement unit of digital information. In practical information technology, KB is actually equal to 210 bytes, which makes it equal to 1024 bytes. Therefore 960 Kbytes will be equal to 960 x 1024 bytes.
