  correctly log on to a computer and update their
  password with no errors. (BUS6670.033)
• Bell-Ringer
• What are three things you should not share on the
  school network?
• Because they are not private, network storage
  areas should be treated like what?

  school network?
• Login names
• Passwords
• Data

4

  areas should be treated like what?
• School lockers

5
Bell-Ringer

• What does circumventing security practices mean?

Computer Math

• Prefixes
• K kilo 1,000 (thousand)

7
Computer Math

• CPU Speeds
• Measured in Hz (hertz)
• Means cycles per second
• The more cycles it can process, the faster it can
  run

8
Computer Math

• 1a. If a CPU is rated at 500 MHz, how many cycles
  can it process in a second?
• 500 times M (1,000,000)
• 500,000,000 (500 million)

9

• 1b. If a CPU is rated at 1 GHz, how many cycles
  can it process in a second?
• 1 times G (1,000,000,000)

11
Computer Math

• 1d. If a CPU is rated at 1.1 GHz, how many cycles
  can it process in a second?
• 1.1 times G (1,000,000,000)

  one rated at 950 MHz?
• 1.1 GHz 1,100,000,000
• 950 MHz 950,000,000

13
Computer Math

• Hard Drive Capacity
• Measured in B (bytes)
• Means pieces of data
• More bytes on the hard drive more data you can
  store

14
Computer Math

• 2a. If a hard drive holds 200 GB, how many pieces
  of data can it store?
• 200 times G (1,000,000,000)
• 200,000,000,000 (200 billion)

15
Computer Math

• 2b. If a hard drive holds 1TB, how many pieces of
  data can it store?
• 1 times T (1,000,000,000,000)
• 1,000,000,000,000 (1 trillion)

16
Computer Math

• 2c. If a hard drive holds 750 GB, how many pieces
  of data can it store?
• 750 times G (1,000,000,000)
• 750,000,000,000 (750 billion)

17
Computer Math

• 2d. You need to have a total of 1TB of storage,
  and you already have a hard drive that holds
  750GB. What is the smallest hard drive you can
  add and have 1TB of storage?
• 1TB (1,000,000,000,000) minus
• 750GB (750,000,000,000)
• 250GB (250,000,000,000)

18
Computer Math

• RAM (Random Access Memory) Capacity
• Measured in B (bytes)
• Means pieces of data
• More bytes of RAM computer runs faster

19
Computer Math

• 1KB RAM 1,024 (28) pieces of data
• 1MB RAM 1,024,000
• 1GB RAM 1,024,000,000

20
Computer Math

• 3a. If a RAM card (stick) holds 512MB, how many
  pieces of data does it hold?
• 512 times M (1,000,000)
• 512,000,000 (512 million)

21
Computer Math

• 3b. If you already have 512MB of RAM and want to
  increase your total RAM to 1GB, how much RAM do
  you need to add?
• 1GB (1,024,000,000) minus
• 512MB (512,000,000)
• 512MB (512,000,000)
