How many individual bits does it take to write the letter J in binary?

Question

four

eight

one

10

Answer 1

To represent the letter "J" in binary, you typically use the ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) encoding. In ASCII, the letter "J" is represented by the decimal number 74, which in binary is written as 01001010.

Since binary is structured in 8 bits (1 byte), the correct answer is eight.
