Question

which of these best describes what a binary digit can store? choose 1 answer: a a binary digit can store one of two values, 0 or 1. b a binary digit can store one of the values from 0 - 9. c a binary digit can store a series of two 0/1 values, such as 1, 1. d a binary digit can store a series of two single - digit values, such as 4, 8.

Explanation:

A binary digit (bit) is the basic unit of information in computing and digital communications. By definition, a binary digit can only represent one of two possible values, which are 0 and 1. Option B is incorrect because values from 0 - 9 are for decimal digits. Options C and D are incorrect because a single binary digit (bit) does not store a series of values; a series of bits (like a byte) can store more complex information, but a single bit is limited to 0 or 1.

Answer:

A. A binary digit can store one of two values, 0 or 1.
