Answer:

Time with 4.2MB/S speed = 7314.3 seconds

Time with 900 KB/S speed = 34952.5 seconds

Explanation:

Given that:

Internet download speed = 4.2 MB/S

File to download = 30 GB

1 GB = 1024 MB

30 GB = 30*1024 = 30720 MBS

Time required =

Time required = 7314.3 seconds

With 900 KB/S

1 MB = 1024 KB

30720 MB = 30720 * 1024 = 31457280 KBS

Time =

Time with 4.2MB/S speed = 7314.3 seconds

Time with 900 KB/S speed = 34952.5 seconds

30 GB = 30*1024 = 30720 MBS

Time required =
(30720)/(4.2)

With 900 KB/S

1 MB = 1024 KB

30720 MB = 30720 * 1024 = 31457280 KBS

Time =
(31457280)/(900)=34952.5\ seconds

Hence,

Time with 4.2MB/S speed = 7314.3 seconds

Time with 900 KB/S speed = 34952.5 seconds
