CALCULATIONS IN COMPUTER SYSTEMS
- Size of bitmap = no. of Horizontal pixels X no. of Vertical pixels X Colour Depth
- No. of pixels = DPI X size in inches
You should also be able to convert from bits, Bytes, Kilobytes, Megabytes, Gigabytes & Terabytes.
- Bit= 1/0 (Binary digIT)
- 1 Byte = 8 Bits
- 1 Kilobytes= 1024 Bytes (210)
- 1 Megabytes= 1024 KB (220)
- 1 Gigabytes = 1024 MB (230)
- 1 Terabytes = 1024 GB (240)
For colour depth
- 8 bits = 256 colours (28)
- 16 bits = High Colour 65,536 colours (216)
- 24 bits = True Colour 16,777,216 colours (224)
