  • Answer: The main components are input, processing, and output. Data (raw facts) is entered via input, processed by the computer, and turned into information (meaningful results) as output.
  • Description: A computer system takes data, like numbers or text, through devices like a keyboard (input). The CPU processes this data by performing calculations or organizing it. The result, such as a report or image, is output via a monitor or printer. This process shows how computers transform useless data into useful information for decision-making.
