Question stated that, “Moore’s law originally stated that the number of transistors on a microprocessor chip would double every…”
No, this is correct. That’s why it says originally. Moore’s original prediction was “a factor of two per year”
Moore's law is the observation that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles about every two years. The observation is named after Gordon Moore, the co-founder of Fairchild Semiconductor and CEO of Intel, whose 1965 paper described a doubling every year in the number of components per integrated circuit and projected this rate of growth would continue for at least another decade. In 1975, looking forward to the next decade, he revised the forecast to doubling ev Moore's pre...
