Mege hertz
💡 Explanation:
CPU speed is measured in megahertz (MHz) or gigahertz (GHz), representing clock cycles per second. One MHz equals one million cycles per second. Hectares measure area, RPM measures rotational speed (used for disk drives), and bits per second measure data transfer rates (network bandwidth). The CPU's clock speed determines how many instructions it can process per second, making MHz the correct unit.
