Best answer

Consider the data,

The size of chunks generated = 40 bytes

The time is taken to generate a chunk = 

The size of the TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) header = 20 bytes

The size of the IP header = 20 bytes

Calculate the total size of the header by using the below formula:

Calculate the total segment size by using the below formula:

Calculate the percentage of the datagram is as following:

Therefore, the percentage of overhead is  and application data is .
