Quizplus · Accepted Answer

One million gigabytes is equal to one trillion bytes, which is equal to approximately 100,000 hours of video content. Therefore, dividing one million gigabytes by 100,000 hours of video content gives an answer of 10,000. Dividing 10,000 by 3 (the average number of hours in a television show) equals approximately 3,333. Therefore, the human brain's long-term storage capacity is enough to hold approximately 3 million hours of television shows. The closest option is B, which is 3.
