A byte represented of 8 bits
A sequence of adjacent bits, usually eight, operated on as a unit by a computer.
A 32 bit per pixel bitmap will have 8 bits each for red green and blue, and 8 bits for alpha level. So 2^24 colors.
A byte is 8 binary bits, each of which hold a value of 0 or 1 (true or false). When counting in binary, a value of 11111111 is the highest value a byte can hold, this is 255. It doesn't matter what programming language is assigning a value to the byte, the highest it can hold is 255. A 'signed' byte uses one bit for the sign, and 7 for the value. Hence 7 bits can show values of up to 128 either side. That's a positive value of 1-127, along with the 0, and then negative values of -1 to -128. Again, regardless of the system assigning the value, 8 bits can only produce 255 different combinations.
11b which is 1*2 + 1*1 = 3 would be for two bits. But a byte is 8 bits, so 2 bytes is 16 bits. The largest binary number is [2^16 - 1], which is 65535 (base ten)
Generally speaking, eight bits to a byte. There is no actual standard that defines how many bits are in a byte, but it has become something of a de facto standard.
An octet is 8 bits, which forms a byte.
There are always eight bits in a byte
There is only 1 bit in a bit. If you are meaning how many bits are in a byte, there are 8 bits in one byte.
1 byte = 8 bits By that logic 16 bytes = 8 x 16 bits So 16 bytes contain 128 bits Do note that bits always typically come in powers of two. 2,4,8,16,32,64,128, and so on.
Eight bits are in one byte
1 byte=8 bits SO, 3byts=24 bits
1 byte = 8 bits (4096 bytes) x (8 bits/byte) = 32768 bits
8 bits/byte x 1024 bytes/KB = 8192 bits/KB

There are 8 bits in 1 byte.
A byte is the basic unit of information in a computer. It is usually the smallest addressable object in memory. The size of a byte is a function of the design of the computer, but nearly universally, it has come to mean 8 bits. (Octet is a more precise definition of 8 bits of memory, in case there is any dichotomy.)
