Actually, k means kilo.
kilo = 1000 but in computer kilo = 1024.

So, C is the right answer.

Silsrang said:   6 years ago
The Correct Answer is B, since K comes from Greek word Kilo which means Thousand.

Meena said:   6 years ago
Yes, KB is the correct answer for this.

In decimal systems, kilo stands for 1,000, but in binary systems, a kilo is 1,024 (2 to the 10th power).

K=Kilo not 1024,
1K=1024.

8 bits = 1 byte.

1024 bytes = 1kilobyte = k.

I think the question is wrongly asked.

It should be stated as 1024 KB = 1024 Kilobyte, or 1024 kb =1024 Kilobit.

Because, only 1024 number can not have any value for its measurement.

It Seems to be wrong question.
As:
K =1024
b = bit
B = Byte
However; Kb = Kilobyte.

Tej said:   9 years ago
IT stand for Kilobytes.

If K = 1024. Then what is 1024 m/mm/cm?

Is there any value for these measurement?
