Alice is downloading a large file from the internet. Her network speed is measured at 100 Mbps. What does "Mbps" stand for in this context?
Megabits per second
Megabytes per second
Millions of bytes per second
Milliseconds per second
Mbps stands for megabits per second. It expresses a data-transfer rate-how many millions of bits can move across the network each second. Internet service providers usually advertise bandwidth in Mbps. Do not confuse it with MBps (uppercase "B"), which is megabytes per second and represents the same kind of rate but in bytes rather than bits (1 MBps ≈ 8 Mbps). The other answer choices use the wrong unit symbol or mix unrelated time measurements, so they do not accurately match the abbreviation.
