    This question is from my e-commerce class. I'm having a hard time trying to find the answer (I know nothing about computer hardware) - "Assuming that you have two processors of the same architecture, why might you want to use one with a higher frequency?" (I'm assuming that "processors" referred to the processors inside a CPU?).

    If they are the same architecture, than a higher frequency processor will be faster.
