Answer

$1000000\text{ MB}=1\text{ TB}$

Work Step by Step

Let us assume each book have 500 page and each page has 2000 characters. => total characters in one books = $500\times 2000= 10^{6}$ => total characters in $10^{6}$ books = $10^{6}$ In ASCII representation, each character will take 1 byte => total memory size = $10^6$ bytes = $1$ MB Total size for $1$ million books: $1000000\times 1\text{ MB}=1000000\text{ MB}=1\text{ TB}$
