Question

A group of four bits is called a:

A.

megabyte

B.

nibble

C.

byte

D.

kilobyte

Correct option is B

The correct answer is: (B) Nibble.
Explanation:
A nibble refers to a group of four bits.
Since a bit is the smallest unit of data in a computer (representing a 0 or 1), a nibble is essentially half of a byte, which consists of eight bits.
The term "nibble" is commonly used to describe the amount of data in memory or during data transmission.
Information Booster:
  • Nibble = 4 bits, which can represent a hexadecimal digit.
  • A byte is equal to 8 bits, so a nibble is half a byte.
  • A nibble can represent 16 different values (from 0000 to 1111 in binary, or 0 to 15 in decimal).
Additional Knowledge:
Megabyte: A megabyte is a larger data unit, equivalent to 1024 kilobytes or 1,048,576 bytes
Kilobyte: A kilobyte is equal to 1024 bytes, or 8192 bits
