CUET PG 2026 Agri-Business Management Question Paper (25-Mar-2026) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
$2^{50}$ Bytes
The question asks to determine the value of 1 Petabyte (PB) in Bytes.
Petabyte Conversion Explained
Data storage units often use binary prefixes based on powers of 2. The standard prefixes are:
- KiloByte (KB) = $2^{10}$ Bytes
- MegaByte (MB) = $2^{20}$ Bytes
- GigaByte (GB) = $2^{30}$ Bytes
- TeraByte (TB) = $2^{40}$ Bytes
- PetaByte (PB) = $2^{50}$ Bytes
- ExaByte (EB) = $2^{60}$ Bytes
Calculating Petabyte Value
Following the pattern of binary prefixes, the prefix 'Peta' corresponds to $2^{50}$. Therefore, 1 Petabyte is equal to $2^{50}$ Bytes.
Final Answer Derivation
Based on the standard definition of binary prefixes used in computing:
- 1 Petabyte (PB) is defined using the Peta prefix.
- The Peta prefix represents $2^{50}$.
- Thus, 1 PB = $2^{50}$ Bytes.
This matches Option B.
