How many 256x256 size images can be stored on a floppy with 8 bits per pixel?

To determine how many 256x256 images can be stored on a floppy disk using 8 bits per pixel, we first need to calculate the storage requirements of a single image.

A 256x256 image contains 256 pixels per row and 256 rows. Therefore, the total number of pixels in one image is:

256 pixels/row * 256 rows = 65,536 pixels.

Since each pixel is represented by 8 bits, the total size of one image in bits would be:

65,536 pixels * 8 bits/pixel = 524,288 bits.

To convert this into bytes (since 1 byte = 8 bits), we divide by 8:

524,288 bits / 8 bits/byte = 65,536 bytes.

Now, we also need to know the total storage capacity of the floppy disk. A standard floppy disk typically has a capacity of 1.44 MB, which converts to bytes as follows:

1.44 MB = 1.44 * 1024 KB/MB * 1024 bytes/KB = 1,474,560 bytes.

Now, to find out how many 256x256 images can be stored, we divide the total storage capacity of the
