Calculate the file size in bits for a two minute sound recording that has used a sample rate of 1000 Hertz (Hz) and a sample resolution of 5 bits.

First, calculate time in seconds:2 minutes * 60 = 120 secondsFile size (bits) = time (seconds) * sample rate (Hz) * sample resolution (bits)File size = 120 * 1000 * 5 bitsFile size = 600,000 bits
