That depends what encoding is used. One common (fairly old) encoding is ASCII; that one uses one byte for each character (letter, symbol, space, etc.). Some systems use 2 bytes per character. Many modern systems use Unicode; if the Unicode characters are stored as UTF-16 - a fairly common encoding scheme - many common characters will still use a single byte, while many special symbols (for example, accented characters) will take up two bytes.
The number of bits is simply the number of bytes multiplied by 8.

40 bits or 5 byrtes
about eight bits, which is equal to one byte
integer data type consumes memory of 4 bytes or 32 bits
how many bytes are there in a 64-bit machine? Another Answer: It takes 8 bytes to store a 64 bit number.
The amount of bytes required to store a pointer. Platform-dependent, often 2, 4 or 8.

61440 Mega Bytes(MB) that is 62914560 Kilo bytes(KB) that is 64424509440 BYTES....- Mayank
32767 is the maximum value that can be stored in two bytes.
One byte is made up of 8 bits, and each bit can store 1 character. Therefore, 8 Bytes can store 64 Characters.
A stick of 512 megabytes of RAM can hold about 512 megabytes of data. It cannot, however, store it for long because it is volatile and is not designed to store data.
