Paper 1 · ICT
A 32-bit microprocessor has a word length equal to
A2 bytes
B32 bytes
C4 bytes ✓ Correct
D8 bytes
Correct answer: (C) 4 bytes — A 32-bit word length equals 4 bytes, so that is the answer.
Explanation
A 32-bit word length equals 4 bytes, so that is the answer.
One byte is made up of 8 bits.
So 32 bits divided by 8 bits per byte gives 4 bytes.
So a 32-bit microprocessor has a word length of 4 bytes.
The other counts do not match 32 bits.
So the answer is 4 bytes.
