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 bytes
of information is given by b = 1,500p where p represents the number of packets and b
represents the number of bytes of information.
1. How many packets would be needed to transmit 30,000 bytes of information?
2. How much information could be transmitted in 30,000 packets?
3. Each byte contains 8 bits of information. Write an equation to represent the
relationship between the number of packets and the number of bits.
