0. Suppose we want to download text documents at the rate of 100 pages per second. Assume that a page consists of an average of 24 lines with 80 characters in each line. What is the required bit rate of the channel?

  • Option : D
  • Explanation :
    We have 100 pages, each page is having 24 line and in each line there are 80 character and each character is of 8 bits. Now we have to calculate no of bits can be downloaded: ie.
    Downloading rate = 100 pages
    = 100 pages *24 line * 80 character * 8 bits
    = 1536000 bits per second
    ie 1.536 Mbps.
    So, option (D) is correct.
