Eight bits are 1 byte. The word 'byte' was coined from the word "by eight" - 1 bit multiplied by 8.
Each 0 or 1 is a bit (bit being short for "binary digit") a byte is 8 of these (byte being short for "binary eight")
AnswerA byte is made up of eight bits. A bit is a single state, usually represented by a 0 or a 1. Using binary code, eight bits can be used to represent characters numbers and other items. A bit is a single numeric value, either '1' or '0', that encodes a single unit of digital information. A byte is a sequence of bits; usually eight bits equal one byte.
Since 8 bits make a bite then a bit is one-eight of a bite.
8 bits make up 1 byte
A bit size is one. It can be either a 0 or 1. Eight bits together is called a byte. Four bits (half of a byte) is called a nibble.

A bit (contraction of binary digit) is the basic unit of information in computing and telecommunications; it is the amount of information stored by a digital device or other physical system that exists in one of two possible distinct states. Old Standard bit b 0 or 1 byte B 8 bits IEC Standard bit bit 0 or 1 byte B 8 bits
Not in computing. A bit is a single entity. A nibble is four bits. A byte is eight bits.
1 bit = a 1 or 0 (b) 4 bits = 1 nybble (?) 8 bits = 1 byte (B)
8 bits are equal to 1 byte
