Binary digit = 1 bit. Four bits = 1 nibble. 8 bits = 1 byte.
[An obsolete computer type used 9 bits to a byte, but that is history, not modern practice. ]
Normally, at least three, but I can do it with two digits:27
There are 10 digits in our number system. The symbols 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,and 9 are the digits used to create numbers.

"Byte" is defined as 8 bits.[Note, in certain historical computers, 1 byte = 9 bits. However, these computers haven't been manufactured in decades, so all current references to byte should be read as 8 bits]
Two hex digits represent a single byte. This is because each hex digit corresponds to 4 bits, and since there are 8 bits in a byte, it takes 2 hex digits (4 bits each) to make up 1 byte.
An extended ASCII byte (like all bytes) contains 8 bits, or binary digits.
2. A 'byte' as you probably know is 8 bits (8 individual digits) and some geeks thought it would be appropriate to call half a byte a nybble (4 bits).

One byte consists of 8 bits (binary digits). Therefore, to find the number of bits in 8 bytes, you multiply 8 bytes by 8 bits per byte, which equals 64 bits. Thus, 8 bytes contain 64 binary digits.
The byte is the smallest sized information that a computer works on, for example to do math or to write text. Originally computers used bytes that were 8 binary digits (bits) but the larger the byte the more can be done with each computer step computer, so soon there were 16-bit, 32-bit and 64-bit etc. computers. So the size of the byte depends on the computer, and are getting larger all the time.

One BYTE is always 8 BITs. (Binary digITs) Some data protocols use a different number of bits to define a character, most systems today use 8 bits, some older systems used 5 bits or 7 bits. But a BYTE is always 8 bits regardless. (a NIBBLE is half a byte - 4 bits).
