Solution

The correct option is B Decreases

When page size is increased, then number of page fault decreases.

A page fault is a type of exception raised by computer hardware when a running program accesses a memory page that is not currently mapped by the memory management unit (MMU) into the virtual address space of a process.

Page size refers to the size of a page, which is a block of stored memory. Page size affects the amount of memory needed and space used when running programs.
