  1. Question 1

    Q1. If a processor executes instructions at a rate of 1.2 * 10^9 instructions per second, what is its MIPS rating?

    • A) 1200 MIPS
    • B) 1500 MIPS
    • C) 1000 MIPS
    • D) 1800 MIPS

    Answer: 1200 MIPS

    Explanation: MIPS rating = instruction execution rate / 10^6 = 1.2 * 10^9 / 10^6 = 1200
