Which of the given options best describes the truthfulness of the following statements? (i) In 1-bit images, each pixel is stored as a single byte. (ii) A 1-bit image with a resolution of 640 × 480 needs a storage space of 640+480 bits.

Which of the given options best describes the truthfulness of the following statements? (i) In 1-bit images, each pixel is stored as a single byte. (ii) A 1-bit image with a resolution of 640 × 480 needs a storage space of 640+480 bits. Correct Answer (i) False, (ii) False

Key Points

 Option 1: ​In 1-bit images, each pixel is stored as a single byte.

False, 1-Bit, or 1bit  means that each pixel is stored as a single bit. i.e. 0 or 1. The names black-and-white, B&W, monochrome or monochromatic are often used for this concept, but may also designate any images that have only one sample per pixel, such as grayscale images.

Option 2: A 1-bit image with a resolution of 640 × 480 needs a storage space of 640+480 bits.

False, 1-bit image is also known as 1-bit monochrome image because it contains one color that is black for off state and white for on state.

A 1-bit image with resolution 640 × 480 needs a storage space of 640 × 480 bits. 640 × 480 bits.

= (640 × 480) / 8 bytes

= (640 × 480) / (8 × 1024) KB

= 37.5KB.

Hence the correct answer is (i) False, (ii) False.
