I dont think so. 0 votes 0 votes Amit625 commented Dec 29, 2018 reply Follow Share Plzz see this solution by MADE EASY, is this correct? 0 votes 0 votes Amit625 commented Dec 29, 2018 reply Follow Share Second Solution 0 votes 0 votes Amit625 commented Dec 29, 2018 reply Follow Share So, by default we will take parallel?? In the above solution, the first part its sequential and the second part its parallel. isnt it? 0 votes 0 votes Amit625 commented Dec 30, 2018 reply Follow Share https://gateoverflow.in/36416/effective-access-time-vs-average-access-time This is what Arjun Sir said 1 votes 1 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
