Question: Which of following statements stands true of a relation called 50-percent rule. <ol> <li>the number of free area is half the number of allocated area ie. m=n/2</li> <li>it helps in estimating the size of the free list</li> <li>it also gives us method of estimating the free area in the memory at any time</li> <li>if sf is the average size of free area of memory,the total free memory is sf×n/2</li> </ol>
Answer:
the number of free area is half the number of allocated area ie. m=n/2
it helps in estimating the size of the free list
it also gives us method of estimating the free area in the memory at any time
if sf is the average size of free area of memory,the total free memory is sf×n/2
MCQ: Which of following statements stands true of a relation called 50-percent rule. <ol> <li>the number of free area is half the number of allocated area ie. m=n/2</li> <li>it helps in estimating the size of the free list</li> <li>it also gives us method of estimating the free area in the memory at any time</li> <li>if sf is the average size of free area of memory,the total free memory is sf×n/2</li> </ol>
Correct Answer:
A. 1 only
Explanation:
the number of free area is half the number of allocated area ie. m=n/2
it helps in estimating the size of the free list
it also gives us method of estimating the free area in the memory at any time
if sf is the average size of free area of memory,the total free memory is sf×n/2
