I have a recorded CD-R showing 700 mb capacity on the label. But when I saw the contents on the computer, it showed two DAT files having 422 mb and 426 mb each i.e. totalling 848 mb. I am confused.

One of three things is happening. You got real lucky, You are misreading, or the files are compressed on the disk and are decompressed when you look at the files on your computer.
