The ___________ algorithm is used to allocate memory by dividing it into equal-sized partitions.

  • Best Fit
  • First Fit
  • Next Fit
  • Worst Fit
First Fit is a memory allocation algorithm where the operating system allocates the first available partition that is large enough to fit a process's memory requirements. It divides memory into equal-sized partitions and searches for a suitable partition starting from the beginning of the memory. Although it may lead to fragmentation, it is easy to implement and requires minimal bookkeeping overhead.
