Consider a hard disk with 1616 recording surfaces (0−15)(0-15) having 1638416384 cylinders (0−16383)(0-16383) and each cylinder contains 6464 sectors (0−63)(0-63). Data storage capacity in each sector is 512512 bytes. Data are organized cylinder-wise and the addressing format is ⟨cylinder no.,surface no.,sector no.⟩\langle \text{cylinder no.}, \text{surface no.}, \text{sector no.} \rangle . A file of size 4279742797 KB is stored in the disk and the starting disk location of the file is ⟨1200,9,40⟩\langle 1200, 9, 40\rangle. What is the cylinder number of the last sector of the file, if it is stored in a contiguous manner?
