Explanation

According to the textbook context, 1 Gbps = 2³⁰ bps. Therefore, to convert 18 Gbps to bits per second, we multiply 18 by 2³⁰. The value of 2³⁰ is 1,073,741,824. So, 18×118 \times 1,073,741,824 = 19,327,352,832 bps.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: From the textbook, 1 Gbps = 2³⁰ bps = 1,073,741,824 bps

  2. Step 2: To find 18 Gbps, multiply: 18×218 \times 2³⁰ bps

  3. Step 3: 18×118 \times 1,073,741,824 = 19,327,352,832 bps

  4. Step 4: Therefore, 18 Gbps = 19,327,352,832 bits per second
