Agent Hunt transferred classified files from the CIA mainframe onto his flash drive. The drive had some files on it before the transfer, and the transfer happened at a rate of 4.44.44, point, 4 megabytes per second. After 323232 seconds, there were 384384384 megabytes on the drive. The drive had a maximum capacity of 100010001000 megabytes.

How full was the drive when the transfer began?

Answer 1

Answer: The drive was 24.32% full when the transfer began.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The rate of transferring file = 4.44 megabytes per second.

After 32 seconds, the amount of data on the drive = 384 megabytes

The amount of transferred data =
`32*4.4=140.8` megabytes

Therefore, the amount of data in the drive at the beginning is given by :-

`\text{Beginning amount=Amount after 32 seconds -Amount transferred}\\\\\Rightarrrow\ \text{Beginning amount=}384-140.8=243.2`

The drive had a maximum capacity of 1000 megabytes.

`(243.2)/(1000)*100=24.32\%`

Hence, the drive was 24.32% full when the transfer began.
