Bytes?

[SOHEEB]

can somebody please help me out on the following problem....thanks in advance

For each of the following data items, indicate how many bytes of storage would be required:

North

U.S.A

General Ledger​

 

[The_Other_One]

Make a new notepad document and see for yourself

Technically it should be one byte per character.

i thought that was bits?

Bits basically equal 0's and 1's. To make a character, a computer typically uses ascii code. Eight bits equals one character(as well as a byte)

North = 5 bytes
before go to U.S.A (5 bytes more) is 2 bytes ("carrier" and "line feed")
then ... similar you have total 5+2+5+2+6(for "General")+1(for "Space")+6 (for "Ledger")= 27 bytes
If you set its place at center, you need more bytes and save to somewhere in your computer, you also need some bytes in addition
