Understanding the relationship between data units is crucial in computing. A common unit is the 'nibble'.
A nibble is a unit of data equal to 4 bits. It represents half a byte.
The question asks to find the equivalent number of bits for 100 nibbles.
Calculation: $ 100 \text{ nibbles} \times 4 \frac{\text{bits}}{\text{nibble}} = 400 \text{ bits} $
