Memory (RAM) is calculated using 1024 killobyes for 1 megabyte however hard drives are usually marketed using 1000 kilobyes for 1 megabyte, one of reasons why you never appear to get the full amount of storage available.

If there are 1000 memory locations and word length is 2 bytes what is the storage capacity of the memory?

The storage capacity of the memory can be calculated by multiplying the number of memory locations by the word length. With 1000 memory locations and a word length of 2 bytes, the total storage capacity is 1000 locations × 2 bytes/location = 2000 bytes. This is equivalent to 2 kilobytes (KB), as 1 KB equals 1024 bytes.
