The procedure is known as<u> context switching</u>.

In the field of computers, context switching can be described as a procedure in which a process is stored so that it can be executed at a later point. Such a procedure allows multitasking operations easier. A simple CPU can be utilized for multiple processes.

After a task is done, it can be swapped out of the CPU and can be restored later. By using context switching, more space can be provided on a CPU as freeing from one process will make space for the other.

When switching a process, the status of the older running process is saved on the CPU as registers.

Context switch makes it feasible to share one CPU for multiple procedures hence reducing the concerns that arise from using additional processors.

posledela

Answer:

The correct program to this question as follows:

Program:

//header file

#include <stdio.h> //include header file for using basic function

int main() //defining main method

{

int amountToChange=19,numFives,numOnes; //defining variable

numFives = amountToChange/5; //holding Quotient  

numOnes = amountToChange%5; //holding Remainder

printf("numFives: %d\n", numFives); //print value

printf("numOnes: %d\n", numOnes); //print value

return 0;

}

Output:

numFives: 3  

numOnes: 4  

Explanation:

In the above program first, a header file is included then the main method is declared inside the main method three integer variable is defined that are "amountToChange, numFives, and numOnes", in which amountToChange variable a value that is "19" is assigned.

  • Then we use the numFives and the numOnes variable that is used to calculate the number of 5 and 1 , that is available in the amountToChange variable.
  • To check this condition we use (/ and %) operators the / operator is used to hold Quotient value and the % is used to hold Remainder values and after calculation prints its value.

A page layout technique that often uses a percentage value for width is called ________.
masya89 [10]
It is called a fluid layout

A fluid web page typically is configured with percentage widths that sometimes take up 100% of the browser. They will use relative units like percentages instead of pixels and will often fill the width of the page regardless of what the width of the browser might be. They keep the same spatial weighting to all elements and works fine on different sizes of screens of similar sort. They define each area of an image layout perfectly.
