Correct answer: C

Concept

Storage capacities must be expressed in the same unit before they can be compared.

Using the binary convention, 1 GB = 1024 MB and 1 MB = 1024 KB.

Application

  1. 2048 MB ÷ 1024 = 2 GB.

  2. 2 GB = 2 × 1024 = 2048 MB.

  3. 2050 MB ÷ 1024 ≈ 2.00195 GB.

  4. 100000 KB ÷ 1024 ÷ 1024 ≈ 0.09537 GB.

Cross-check

In megabytes, the capacities are 2048 MB, 2048 MB, 2050 MB, and about 97.66 MB. Therefore, 2050 MB is the largest capacity.
