Answer:

i. 32 Megabits is equal to 4 MB.

ii. It will take 10 seconds to transfer a 40 MB file.

Step-by-step explanation:

i. 1 MB = 8 Megabits

32 Megabits = 32/8

= 4 MB

(1 MB is equal to 8 Megabits, so to know 32 Megabits is equal to how many MB you need to divide 32 with 8, so you will get 4. Like this we get the answer, that is 4 MB.)

ii. Data Transfer in 1 Second = 4 MB

= Time to transfer 40 MB file = 40/4

= 10

(4 MB file will be shared in 1 Second, so to know how much time will it take to transfer a 40 MB file, we have to divide 40 with 4, which is 10. Now we have got the answer that is, 10 Second.
