The number of pictures that can fit into 1 GB depends on several factors, including the resolution, format, and quality of the images.
High-Resolution Images (e.g., DSLR, RAW format):
Size: 10-25 MB per image
Number of images in 1 GB: 40-100
Standard JPEG Images from a Smartphone (e.g., 12 MP):
Size: 2-5 MB per image
Number of images in 1 GB: 200-500
Compressed JPEG Images (e.g., lower quality):
Size: 500 KB - 2 MB per image
Number of images in 1 GB: 500-2000
As for text files, the number of words in a GB depends on the file format and any additional formatting or metadata. For a plain text file:
Plain Text (ASCII):
Size: Approximately 1 byte per character
Number of characters in 1 GB: 1 billion
Assuming an average word length of 5 characters plus 1 space (6 bytes per word):
Number of words in 1 GB: Approximately 166.67 million words
However, if the text is formatted or includes additional data (such as in a Word document), the size may vary, but the number of words would still be in the tens of millions for 1 GB.
