I put width * height
the reason I didn't put colour depth is because that makes the value the file size which goes against the question
The size of the image is w*h

wait what I think we should include color depth too because I saw it on past papers and text books

that gives you the file size. If you think about it, when you hover over a picture in google, it has the value 1080X1080 - that represents the size of the image. If it had the colour depth, then it would represent the size of the file

I think you misunderstood. Width x height means resolution not image size or file size

Nope,
Image size = width x height
File size = image size × color depth
Resolution = number of pixels per unit area

Reply 67

Yep! It specified in the question the image size, NOT the file size. This means it would be the resolution, so height x width.

How did everyone find the flowchart question on anti-malware?
