Question



A collection of 4 bits is known as ____________ .

A.

BYTE

B.

WORD

C.

NIBBLE

D.

K.BYTE

Correct option is C

A group of 4 bits is called a nibble. It is half of a byte, which consists of 8 bits. Nibbles are commonly used in binary and hexadecimal data representation.
Important Key Points:
1. 1 Nibble = 4 bits, representing a single hexadecimal digit.
2. A byte is made up of 2 nibbles or 8 bits.
3. Nibbles are useful in low-level programming and digital electronics.
Knowledge Booster:
· BYTE – Composed of 8 bits, not 4.
· WORD – A CPU-specific unit that may be 16, 32, or 64 bits depending on the system.
· K.BYTE (Kilobyte) – Equals 1024 bytes, not related to bit-level groupings.
