| 13860209741 | Megabyte (MB) | 1,024 kilobytes (sometimes approximated as "about 1000" kilobytes) | 2 | |
| 13860209742 | Gigabyte (GB) | 1,024 megabytes (sometimes approximated as "about 1000" megabytes) | 3 | |
| 13860209743 | Terabyte (TB) | 1,024 gigabytes (sometimes approximated as "about 1000" gigabytes) | 4 | |
| 13860209744 | Petabyte (PB) | 1,024 terabytes (sometimes approximated as "about 1000" terabytes) | 5 | |
| 13860209745 | Exabyte (EB) | 1,024 petabytes (sometimes approximated as "about 1000" petabytes) | 6 | |
| 13860209746 | .bmp | (bitmap image file or bitmap) is a raster graphics image file format used to store digital images. (not compressed) |  | 7 |
| 13860209747 | .gif | (acronym for Graphics Interchange Format) a bitmap image format which uses the LZW lossless data compression technique to reduce the file size without degrading the visual quality. Supports 8 bits per pixel for each image and animations. |  | 8 |
| 13860209748 | .jpg or .jpeg | (acronym for Joint Photographic Experts Group), a commonly used lossy compression format for digital images, particularly for those images produced by digital photography. The format supports adjustable degrees of compression. |  | 9 |
| 13860209749 | .mp3 | an audio coding format for digital audio which uses a form of lossy data compression which works by reducing (or approximating) certain components of the audio that are considered to be beyond audible human hearing. |  | 10 |
| 13860209750 | .wav | (Waveform Audio File Format) an audio coding format standard for storing an audio bitstream of uncompressed audio data. |  | 11 |
| 13860209751 | .txt | a computer format that is structured as a sequence of lines of electronic text. |  | 12 |
| 13860209752 | .zip | an archive file format that supports lossless data compression; may contain one or more files or directories. |  | 13 |
| 13860209753 | .png | (Portable Network Graphics) a raster graphics file format that supports lossless data compression. |  | 14 |
| 13860209754 | Image | A type of data used for graphics or pictures. |  | 15 |
| 13860209755 | File Extensions | the endings of file names that indicate to the computer the format for how the underlying bits are organized. |  | 16 |
