What is the resolution associated with CGA?

  1. 320x240

  2. 640x480

  3. 800x600

  4. 1024x768

The correct answer is: 320x240

CGA, or Color Graphics Adapter, was one of the earliest graphics standards released by IBM for personal computers. It was released in 1981 and only supported a maximum resolution of 320x200 pixels, allowing users to display 16 colors simultaneously. Therefore, options B, C, and D, which have higher resolutions, are incorrect. Option A is the only one that accurately reflects the resolution associated with CGA.
