Is km bigger than m?
Yes. k is short for kilo, which means thousand.
Which is bigger m or km?
the k means a thousand of them, so a km is 1000 meters and it is bigger.
What does 'k' stands for in a sentence ' a computer has 1024 k memory'?
"k" or "kb"means Kilobytes,a type of unit to measure how much memory is held,used,treated,or deleted. 1024 Kilobytes, in binary measurement, is equal to one megabyte (Mb).
If a over b equals c over d then is it possible that a plus b equals c plus d and why?
Yes. To show the conditions on a, b, c and d given that if a/b = c/d then a+b = c+d. Suppose b != d (and that both b and d are non-zero) then: d = kb for some number k (!= 0), so c/d = c/kb = (c/k)/b so a/b = (c/k)/b => a = c/k => c = ka Thus: c + d = ka + kb = k(a + b) Which means that c + d = a + b only if k = 1. Thus if a/b = c/d then a + b = c + d only if a = c and b = d. The condition on b and d both being non-zero prevents the possibility of division by zero. If either is zero, a division by zero will occur and at least one of the fractions is infinite.
How much k is in 1 KB?
None, there is no k in kb, there are b in kb. Data is made of bits. A bit is a piece of information ( 1 or 0 ). Using eight (8) bits we can make any single letter or number. Eight bits is referred to as a byte. These eight bits are a string of binary (two base numbering system) One kb is 1024 bytes. Kilo is the term for 1000 such as used in kilometre, meaning 1000 metres. However there are 1024 when we refer to kb because, as mentioned, using a base two numbering system, 1000 is no longer a nice round number. However 1024 is 2 to the power of 10 ( 2^10 ). Understanding this, the number 1024 would be written in binary as 1111111111 After kilo is mega (mb) followed by giga (gb) and then tera (tb)
