The smallest unit of storage is called a ____ digit or ‘____’. Each bit can store one piece of binary data, a 0 or 1. A ____ contains 8 bits. A single keyboard character such as ‘d’ takes up one byte of data storage. So the letters, ‘____’ would take 3 bytes of storage or alternatively 24 bits. A kilobyte is generally thought of as ____ bytes. However to be factually correct it is actually ____ bytes. So a paragraph containing 1024 letters would be equivalent to a ____ of data storage. A simple vector clip art image might take between 3-10 kilobytes of storage whereas a photograph might be around 50 kilobytes because of the greater level of detail which needs to be stored. A ____ or MB is generally thought of as one million bytes or 1,000 kilobytes. Again, to be completely accurate it is actually 1,024 kilobytes. ____ typed essays would take up approximately 1 megabyte of storage space. A typical MP3 song can be anywhere between 3-5 ____ in size. A gigabyte is the next unit on the ____ and it stores ____ megabytes. 1 GB can store the contents of a ____ of books measuring ____ yards. A Hollywood film can be around 4-8 gigabytes in size. Nowadays ____ disks are measured in ____ rather than gigabytes. So far, only ____ and data centres require ____ of storage, but it isn’t beyond the realms of possibility that one day personal computers and other devices may have a similar storage capacity.
