CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 236

A laptop is being upgraded. The machine currently has 4GB LPDDR3 soldered to the motherboard and one available RAM slot. Which of the following chips should be selected to upgrade the laptop?

Answer options

• A. 2GB LPDDR3 SoDIMM
• B. 4GB LPDDR3 DIMM
• C. 8GB DDR4 SoDIMM
• D. 8GB LPDDR3 DIMM

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as the laptop requires a compatible LPDDR3 chip to match the existing soldered memory. Options B and D are not suitable because they exceed the maximum capacity of 4GB for LPDDR3 in this configuration. Option C is incorrect because DDR4 is incompatible with LPDDR3 memory types.
