Answer:

7200

Explanation:

For this case, the first thing you should keep in mind is the following conversion:


1 hour = 3600 seconds


Therefore, by applying the conversion to the given internet speed, we have:


(2)\frac{Mb}{s} * (3600) \frac{s}{h} = 7200\frac{Mb}{h}

8 bits make a byte, so:

2 megabits/sec divided by 8 = .25 megabytes per second (or 250k/sec)

.25 MBps * 60 seconds = 15 MB per minute

15 MB per minute * 60 minutes = 900MB per hour

So 2 Mbps = 900 MB per hour
