A specific editor has $200 K$ of program text, $15 K$ of initial stack, $50 K$ of initialized data, and $70 K$ of bootstrap code. If five editors are started simultaneously, how much physical memory is needed if shared text is used?

1. $1135 K$
2. $335 K$
3. $1065 K$
4. $320 K$

initial stack, initialized data, and bootstrap code can be shared among the editors.

Given that text is also shared,

then total memory =200+15+50+70 =335K

how can u elaborate more eg  chrome brower same program text will be shared but other would be different @sh!va

Because text is shared so no need to multiply 200 with 5.

and other need each for running

Ans (B) 335K <= (200K + 15K + 50K + 70K)

Reason is provided in the snapshot below.

5 editor works simultaneously

Each editor must have separate code in each.

But they could share initial stack, initialized data and bootstrap code

So, total memory required 200*5+15+50+70=1135 K
