1MB ______ bytes
Tap an option to check yourself.
Answer: C) 1024 X 1024
In the binary system used by computers (powers of 2):
1 KB = 1024 bytes
1 MB = 1024 KB = 1024 × 1024 bytes = 1,048,576 bytes
Option analysis:
A (1024 KB) – This correctly states 1 MB = 1024 KB, but the question asks for the value in bytes, so it does not fit.
B (1000) – Incomplete and incorrect; the decimal (SI) value is 1,000,000 bytes, not simply 1000.
C (1024 × 1024) – Correct binary value in bytes.
D – Not all options are correct.
In standard computer-fundamentals questions, the expected answer is the binary conversion 1024 × 1024.
