Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Throughput is a performance measure that indicates how much work a system can perform in a given amount of time.
Example:
A printer prints 120 pages in 1 minute.
Throughput = 120 pages/minute.
A CPU completes 500 processes in 10 seconds.
Throughput = 50 processes/second.
Higher throughput means better system performance.
