Best Answer

There is no simple answer, the answer depends on the image contents and on the number of unique colors in the image.

For photos jpeg is the best option, compression is lossy, but for the human eye the differences are not that dramatic. You can adjust the compression level (some tools allow it, some not).

For small images, with a maximum of 256 colors .gif or .png are good. Both use loss-less compression.

You can use an image converter to test some of the possibilities (gif, png or jpeg).

How big is an image that is 8750 kilobytes?

There is no answer to that until you specify the format. Even so if its format includes any compression (jpeg for example) there is no way to get the image size out of the final size since the compression rate depends on image content.You can guess, that is all. I would guess your are taking about a jpeg from a 12MP camera, still this is nothing but an educated guess.
