To transmit information on the internet, large files are broken into packets of smaller sizes. each packet has 1,500 bytes of information. an equation relating packets to byes of information is given by b=1,500p represents the number of packets and b represent the number of bytes of information.
a. how many packets would be needed to transmit 30,000bytes of information
b. how much information could be transmitted in 30,000 packets

A. It would be needed 20 packets to transmit 30,000 bytes of information.

B. 45'000,000 (45 million) of bytes could be transmitted in 30,000 packets.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the data given to us for solving the question:

Size of each packet of information = 1,500 bytes

Number of packets = P

Number of bytes of information = B

2. Let's answer the questions:

A. How many packets would be needed to transmit 30,000 bytes of information?

P = 30,000 ÷ 1,500

P = 20

It would be needed 20 packets to transmit 30,000 bytes of information

B. How much information could be transmitted in 30,000 packets?

B = 30,000 * 1,500

B = 45'000,000

45'000,000 (45 million) of bytes could be transmitted in 30,000 packets.
