When a computer saves text it converts it to 1s and 0s. Each letter or character is assigned a unique code of 8 1s or 0s. For example, the code for lowercase "a" is 110 0001.

Each one or zero in a code is called a bit. Each string of 8 bits is called a byte.

What is 5gal 2qt - 3gal 3qt equals?

To solve the expression (5 \text{ gal } 2 \text{ qt} - 3 \text{ gal } 3 \text{ qt}), first convert everything into quarts. There are 4 quarts in a gallon, so (5 \text{ gal } 2 \text{ qt} = 20 \text{ qt} + 2 \text{ qt} = 22 \text{ qt}) and (3 \text{ gal } 3 \text{ qt} = 12 \text{ qt} + 3 \text{ qt} = 15 \text{ qt}). Now, subtract: (22 \text{ qt} - 15 \text{ qt} = 7 \text{ qt}). Thus, the result is (7 \text{ qt}).


1 hr 28 min 45 s - 45 min 12 s equals?

To calculate (1 , \text{hr} , 28 , \text{min} , 45 , \text{s} - 45 , \text{min} , 12 , \text{s}), first convert everything to seconds: (1 , \text{hr} = 3600 , \text{s}), so (1 , \text{hr} , 28 , \text{min} , 45 , \text{s} = 3600 + 1680 + 45 = 5325 , \text{s}). Then convert (45 , \text{min} , 12 , \text{s}) to seconds: (45 , \text{min} = 2700 , \text{s}), so (45 , \text{min} , 12 , \text{s} = 2712 , \text{s}). Subtracting gives (5325 , \text{s} - 2712 , \text{s} = 2613 , \text{s}), which converts back to (43 , \text{min} , 33 , \text{s}).


What formula related mass volume and density?

The relationship between mass, volume, and density is expressed by the formula: ( \text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}} ). This means that density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume. Alternatively, you can rearrange the formula to find mass or volume: ( \text{Mass} = \text{Density} \times \text{Volume} ) or ( \text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}} ).


What is the mass of a solid cube of iron that is 10cm long 10cm wide 10cm high and has a density of 7.9 gcm?

To find the mass of the cube, first calculate its volume: ( V = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height} = 10 , \text{cm} \times 10 , \text{cm} \times 10 , \text{cm} = 1000 , \text{cm}^3 ). Then, use the density formula (( \text{mass} = \text{density} \times \text{volume} )) to find the mass: ( \text{mass} = 7.9 , \text{g/cm}^3 \times 1000 , \text{cm}^3 = 7900 , \text{g} ). Thus, the mass of the solid cube of iron is 7900 grams.
