What will be the time for downloading software?
- Transfer rate is 6 Kilobytes per second.
- The size of the software is 4.5 megabytes.
Answer & solution
- A
1

- D
4
Statement A alone is not sufficient because it gives only the rate at which data is transferred but it does not give the size of the software.
Statement B alone is not sufficient because it gives only the size of the software but it does not give the rate of data transfer.
Combining both the statements A and B together, we can get the time to download.
âµ Time required for data transfer = (Size of the software)/(Rate of data transfer)
Hence, option (c).
