    Explanation
    One terabyte is equal to 1,000 gigabytes. Each CD-ROM typically holds 700 megabytes of data. To find the number of CD-ROMs needed to make up one terabyte, we divide 1,000,000 (1 terabyte in megabytes) by 700. The result is approximately 1428, which means that 1428 CD-ROMs would be needed to store one terabyte of data.
