Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
RAM is measured in megabytes (MB) or gigahertz (GHz).
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -RAM speed is measured in Megahertz (MHz), millions of cycles per second so that it can be compared to your processor’s clock speed.

Detailed explanation-2: -This is because historically, 8 bits are needed to encode a single character of text. So when we measure the volume of information capable of being contained on, say, a hard drive, it makes sense to measure this as the total amount of memory available. In other words, the number of bytes.

Detailed explanation-3: -According to the Base 2 rules, one megabyte is equal to 1 048 576 bytes, which is again equal to 220 bytes. In this value, the megabyte most commonly applies to “Microsoft Windows” to indicate the amount of data in a computer’s memory, primarily in RAM memory.
