B Correct answer
Explanation

One Gigabyte is approximately 1 billion bytes (1000,000,000 bytes). In decimal systems, giga means 10^9 or one billion. While in binary computing 1 GB = 1024^3 bytes (approximately 1.07 billion), the question uses 'approximately' and asks for the decimal interpretation, making one billion bytes the best answer.

AI explanation

One gigabyte is conventionally expressed in the decimal/SI sense as 1,000,000,000 bytes (10^9) — this is how storage vendors and most everyday contexts define it. 1,000,000 bytes is only one megabyte (10^6), far too small. 1,000,000,000,000 bytes is one terabyte (10^12), far too large. So 1,000,000,000 bytes is correct. (Note: strictly in binary terms 1 GiB = 1,073,741,824 bytes, but the question's 'approximately equal' phrasing matches the standard decimal/SI figure.)
