The country of Zombieland is in distress since more than 75% of its working population is suffering from serious health issues. Studies conducted by competent health experts concluded that a complete lack of physical exercise among its working population was one of the leading causes of their health issues. As one of the measures to address the problem, the Government of Zombieland has decided to provide monetary incentives to those who ride bicycles to work.
Based only on the information provided above, which one of the following statements can be logically inferred with certainty?
Show Hint
- All the working population of Zombieland will henceforth ride bicycles to work.
- Riding bicycles will ensure that all of the working population of Zombieland is free of health issues.
- The health experts suggested to the Government of Zombieland to declare riding bicycles as mandatory.
- The Government of Zombieland believes that riding bicycles is a form of physical exercise.
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Why not other options?
- (A) is incorrect because there is no certainty that all of the working population will ride bicycles to work; the decision is only to provide incentives.
- (B) is incorrect because while riding bicycles may contribute to physical exercise, it does not guarantee the resolution of all health issues.
- (C) is incorrect because the information does not specify that the health experts recommended making bicycle riding mandatory, only that they linked health issues to the lack of exercise.

A disk of size 512M bytes is divided into blocks of 64K bytes. A file is stored in the disk using linked allocation. In linked allocation, each data block reserves 4 bytes to store the pointer to the next data block. The link part of the last data block contains a NULL pointer (also of 4 bytes). Suppose a file of 1M bytes needs to be stored in the disk. Assume, 1K = \(2^{10}\) and 1M = \(2^{20}\). The amount of space in bytes that will be wasted due to internal fragmentation is ___________.
