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.

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

How does k stands for 1024?
If K means 1024, why do we need to type 1024? I think K stands for KB.

Actually, k means kilo.
kilo = 1000 but in computer kilo = 1024.
So, C is the right answer.

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

If K = 1024. Then what is 1024 m/mm/cm?
Is there any value for these measurement?

The Correct Answer is B, since K comes from Greek word Kilo which means Thousand.

8 bits = 1 byte.
1024 bytes = 1kilobyte = k.
1024 bytes = 1kilobyte = k.
