Some of you local, typically family owned furniture companies may be will to cut package deals for their customers. Especially since they have to compete with the larger company stores or even a Walmart; in which I doubt any of them would have deals like that (or make one really).

Bit is the smallest component of data and byte is larger then bit so:

1 byte = 8 bits = 23 bits

1 Kilobyte = 1024 bytes = 210 bits

1 Megabyte = 1024 kilobytes = 220 bits

1 Gegabyte = 1024 megabytes = 230 bits

A bit is smaller than a byte. There are 8 bits in a byte, so a bit is one eight of a byte.

No - one byte is equal to 8 bits.

Fun fact - four bits is called a 'nybble'!

It is incorrect to say that one bit is equal to eight bytes. One bit is not equal to eight bytes. It is correct to say that one byte is equal to eight bits.
