no i was dividing by 1024, i tried again and ended up getting like 20.02GB

Probably just a misinput to the calculator. To avoid this in the exam type the calculation from scratch twice so you ensure that what you got is correct.

yeah i usually do do that this question just confused me, wait so if its 20.02gb would it be B or C? surely the .2 isnt thattt significant

even if it is a little over, you still have to take the next largest value as a small amount of space on a disk is reserved for system functions so you can't really use the entire disk. and even if it is small fragment you're still not gonna be able to store the entire data files.

what would you guys say the answer to this is? ive tried it so many times but i keep getting B and its not it but i have no idea how??

the keyword in this is "minimum" storage requirement. since it adds up to 20.5 GB, the only option you have for the minimum would be 25 GB (C)

(800MB x 25 + 4.8MB x 100 + 0.2MB x 100 = 20500MB = 20.5GB)

wait hold on so yeah 20500mb is equal to 20.5 gb, but what about when you convert by dividing by 1024?, you get a different answer but its technically still right??

converting MB to GB is divided by 1000 i think i honestly dont even know at this point but that's usually how people simplify it

i thought megabits/s to gigabits/s was dividing by 1000 and megabytes to gigabytes was dividing by 1024?

It’s by 1024 in multi but for subjects like IPT it’s by 1000 since you don’t get the calculator but since you have the calculator in multi they expect it to be divided by 1024

It is that way

DEBRIEF GUYS
I actually liked it structural for industry study was nice
No calculator questions!!
Mc was not bad I actually skipped q6 lucky I looked back over
The kid next to me sat still half of it haha
I was actually pretty bored I was counting down to 3:30

despite having a few iffy questions, it was overall a really enjoyable exam
