explain ping

Hi all….

when i ping my default gateway or primary DNS server or Secondary DNS Server, i get a line some thing like this
Reply from 117.195.224.1: bytes=32 time=42ms TTL=254

can anybody plz explain this line?

what is bytes=32?
what is that time?
what is that TTL?
ehat is that 254?

time=42ms
that 42ms is not same in each and every line. that number is fluctuating for line to line.
is it necessary to have that time value for every line?
