1000 (quite often, alternatively 1024) bytes = 1 kilobyte
1000 kilobyte = 1 megabyte
1000 megabyte = 1 gigabyte

Therefore, it'll hold 32,000 kb, which is the same as 32 mb.

Video files are largest, then audio, then special documents like publisher or excel, then word, then notepad.

The average album of music is well over 40 mb; you will have trouble fitting over 5 songs. It'll be even less with video files.

I hope this helps, and wish you all the best.

Well a 32mb flash drive will hold... well... 32mb worth of memory.

Here is how I do it:
1000kb = 1 mb
1000mb = 1 GB
1000gb = 1 TB

Give or take a couple. There is a specific number but this is the easiest to do it.

If you are talking about music. A 32 mb card will hold about 6-9 songs depending on the size.

Above info is incorrect. Since computers use binary and everything else is base two, so is memory. One mb is 1024 kb (2^10 kb) One gb is 1024 mb and so on. This isn't much different fromthe above answers, but it does explain why the numbers vary by more than a couple decimal places when Windows displays file sizes and such.

It depedns on the type of files you are storing.

1kb is 1,000bytes
1MB is 1,000Kb
1GB is 1,000MB

If you store video (biggest file type) as apposed to text files (smallest file type) you would get less info on your storage device. songs, video and graphics all take up more space than graphics.

To figure out how much your device holds simply drag and drop files over to your device and Windows Explorer will tell you when the device is full.

I hope this helps a bit.

Here you go.

1000kb is 1 mb
1000mb is 1 GB
1000gb is 1 TB

you've 4GB. it is 4,000MB. A song is often 5-15MB, be conscious archives are about 0.5 a MB, digicam photos must be about 3MB or extra. that ought to provide you some theory as to that you'll save.

A little bit less than 10 songs (assuming 3mb per song )

2006-07-25 11:14:21 · answer #8 · answered by AlexTLC 2 · 0 0
