Suppose the search field is V = 9 bytes long, the disk block size is B = 512 bytes, a record pointer Pr is 7 bytes, and a block pointer Pb is of 6 bytes. Each B-tree node can have at most p tree pointers, p- 1 data pointers and p - 1 search key field values. These must fit into a single disk block if each B-tree node is corresponds to a disk block. What is the average number of block pointers at 2d level of B-tree, given that B-tree is 69% full.

Suppose the search field is V = 9 bytes long, the disk block size is B = 512 bytes, a
record pointer Pr is 7 bytes, and a block pointer Pb is of 6 bytes. Each B-tree node
can have at most p tree pointers, p - 1 data pointers and p - 1 search key field
values. These must fit into a single disk block if each B-tree node is corresponds to
a disk block. What is the average number of block pointers at 2d level of B-tree,
given that B-tree is 69% full.
