giga means 10^9 a one with 9 zeros after it
5,000 = 5^10^5
so
we have
4 * 10^9 bytes on player
=========================
5 * 10^5 bytes per song
which is the same as
40 * 10^8 bytes on player
=========================
5 * 10^5 bytes per song
or
8 * 10^3 songs on a player
but 8*10^3 = 8,000
By the way K or kilo is the symbol for 1000 or 10^3
so 5,000 bytes is 5 KB, kilo bytes
5,000 = 5^10^3
so
we have
4 * 10^9 bytes on player
=========================
5 * 10^3 bytes per song
which is the same as
40 * 10^8 bytes on player
=========================
5 * 10^3 bytes per song
or
8 * 10^5 songs on a player
but 8*10^5 = 800,000
By the way K or kilo is the symbol for 1000 or 10^3
so 5,000 bytes is 5 KB, kilo bytes
