| A 20 MB file is transferred over a connection in 120 seconds. Determine the size of the file (in MB) that can be transferred over the same connection in 10 minutes.
Let’s calculate the data transfer rate over the channel: 20 MB / 120 sec = 1/6 MB / sec. Therefore, the size of a file that can be transferred in 10 minutes, that is, in 600 seconds, is 1/6 MB / sec * 600 sec = 100 MB.
