Data Representation Worksheet 4 Images

This document discusses data representation of images. It contains an image represented using 4 colors that requires 2 bits per pixel. It also contains calculations of file sizes for different images with varying resolutions and color depths. Increasing image resolution increases file size because more pixels require more binary data to store color values. Higher image quality and larger file size are related because more pixels and more colors both require more data storage.

Unit 8 Data Representation

Worksheet 4: Data representation of images


1. This image uses four colours so requires 2 bits per pixel. Shade in the image as a
computer using the key.

2. Calculate the file size of the following images:

Image Number of Colour depth File size in File size in


Resolution colours in bits bits Bytes
Image 1 20 x 20 8 3 1,200 150
Image 2 10 x 10 8 3 300 37.5
Image 3 20 x 20 4 2 800 100

3. How does increasing the image resolution affect the file size?

Increasing the resolution will increase the number of pixels used, therefore increasing the

File size since each additional pixel will require extra binary data to store its colour value.

4. Explain the relationship between image quality and file size

As the number of pixels increases in the same area, the quality improves, as does the file

Size. As the number of colours in an image increases, the data required to store a greater

Number of colours increases, as does the quality and the file size.
