Best Answer

A megabyte of memory can contain ONE of the following:* About a million letters of plain text - equivalent to about 300 pages.

* One photograph in decent quality.

* Several photographs in medium or low quality. The exact amount depends on the size and quality of the photographs.

* One minute of sound (for instance, MP3), in high quality.

* Several minutes of sound in low quality.

Note that one MB (megabyte) is a fairly small amount for a modern computer. As of 2017, computers typically have several GB (thousands of MB) of RAM memory, and somewhere between 0.5 and 3 TB (millions of MB) of hard disk space.
