Calculate how much space will take one minute of digital audio on a hard disk or any

Calculate how much space will take one minute of digital audio on a hard disk or any other digital media recorded at 16 bits and 44.1 kHz sampling rate

Since we have recorded digital audio, it means it was recorded in stereo.

As we know from the computer science curriculum that is taught in school, the volume of a sound file can be calculated using the following formula:

I = v * i * t * k, where v is the sampling rate (in hertz), i is the recording bit depth, t is the playing time (in seconds), and k is the number of tracks.

Let’s find out what value will be equal to the volume of the sound file under the conditions that are indicated in our task:

44100 * 16 * 60 * 2 = 84672000.

Answer: 84672000 bits.
