3 3 votes considering when hit ratio is 90% average memory access time =0.9(50)+0.1(100+50)=60 comparing it with when hit ratio is 100%: memory access time is 50 slow down =(60-50)/50=0.2 0.2 * 100=20% Mayank Gupta 3 answered Mar 5, 2018 Mayank Gupta 3 comment Share Follow See 1 comment 1 1 comment reply satendra commented Mar 5, 2018 reply Follow flag yes i also got 20% but the answer given was 60.Perhaps they might have marked it incorrectly. 0 0 replyShare Please log in or register to add a comment.
