Suppose there are 69 packets entering a queue at the same time. Each packet is of size 7 MiB. The link transmission rate is 1.7 Gbps. What is the queueing delay of packet number 3?

Answer:

69.08265412 milliseconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets first convert 7 MiB to bits


7*1024*1024*8=58720256 bits

Now convert bits to Gbits


58720256/10^(9)  =0.058720256 Gbits

Queuing Delay = Total size/transmission link rate

Queuing Delay=
(0.058720256)/(1.7) =0.03454132706 seconds

Delay of packet number 3 =
0.03454132706*2=0.06908265412 seconds

or
0.06908265412= 69.08265412 milliseconds
