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.

How many binary digits combined to create one byte?
2
How many bits are in extended ASCII byte?
An extended ASCII byte (like all bytes) contains 8 bits, or binary digits.
How many bianary digits create one byte?
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. ]
How do you compute bits of a sentence?
You count every character and all the spaces, then multiply it by 8. Each character and space is represented in 8 binary digits which are called bits BInary digiTS. 8 bits make a byte and 1 byte represents a single character or space. So, when you count the characters and spaces in a sentence, you will know the number of bytes the sentence has. So, multiply that number by 8 and you will know how many bits.
How many digits are in the binary system and what are they?
The binary system uses two digits, zero and one.
How many binary combine to create one byte?
two
How many digits are used in a binary number system and what are they?
There are two digits in the binary number system. 0 and 1
How many binary digits would be required to represent the decimal number 1000 in the binary number system?
10 digits.
How many digits are there in the binary equivalent of 56?
56 in binary is 111000. Unlike the decimal number system where we use the digits.
How many digits in the binary system'?
Two of them.
How many bytes are in a binary code?
There is no real answer to this. Binary codes can be any length. The minimum length is 1 byte.
How many bits are it byte?
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).
