Which of the following statements is/are correct? Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Only the first statement is correct, that accessing data in RAM is usually faster than accessing it on a hard drive.

Statement 1 is true because RAM is electronic with no moving parts, while a hard drive relies on spinning platters.

Statement 2 is false, because the hexadecimal number 99 does not equal the decimal number 99.

Hexadecimal 99 means nine sixteens plus nine, which is 153 in decimal.

Only when a hex value uses digits 0 to 9 in a single place does it match the same decimal digit.

Hexadecimal is base sixteen, so each place is worth sixteen times the one to its right.
