Theresa talked her parents into getting SD cards for her phone and her brother's phone. Inserting an SD card into a phone gives it more storage. They both get 8-gigabyte SD cards.

How many bits of storage come with each SD card? Type your answer in both scientific and standard notation.



Answer :

Final answer:

Each 8-gigabyte SD card contains 68,719,476,736 bits of storage, equivalent to 6.8719476736 x 10^10 bits in scientific notation.


Explanation:

Each SD card contains 8 gigabytes of storage.

To convert gigabytes to bits:

  1. 1 gigabyte = 1024 megabytes = 1024 x 1024 kilobytes = 1024 x 1024 x 1024 bytes = 1024 x 1024 x 1024 x 8 bits
  2. 8 gigabytes = 8 x 1024 x 1024 x 1024 x 8 bits
  3. Hence, each SD card contains 68,719,476,736 bits.

In scientific notation, this is written as 6.8719476736 x 10^10 bits.
