What is an example of a client-server setup?

  1. A group of users that access a mainframe computer

  2. A computer connected to a printer

  3. A network of computers connected via the internet

  4. A computer without any external devices connected to it

The correct answer is: A network of computers connected via the internet

An example of a client-server setup is a network of computers connected via the internet. This setup involves multiple computers, with some acting as clients and others acting as servers. The client computers connect to the server computer through the internet to access resources and services. Option A is incorrect because it only describes a group of users accessing a single computer, which is not a client-server setup. Option B is also incorrect as it simply describes a computer connected to a printer, which is not a network setup. Option D is incorrect because a computer without any external devices connected to it cannot function as a client or server. Only option C accurately describes a client-server setup, making it the correct answer.
