                You do not need to know Math to answer so simple question.

                Having a bit of common sense id just enough.

Probably, you know that 1 hour is 3600 seconds.

Every second, your computer gets 2 megabytes of info per second from the otside.

Hence, in one hour, the computer will get 3600 times 2 megabytes of info.

So, all you need is to multiply 2 megabytes by 3600.

By doing it, you will get 2*3600 = 7200 megabytes per hour.

That is all --- you just got the answer.
