How many kilobyte in 1 mega bytes? The answer is 976.5625. We assume you are converting between kilobyte and megabyte. You can view more details on each measurement unit: kilobyte or mega bytes The main non-SI unit for computer data storage is the byte. 1 byte is equal to 0.0009765625 kilobyte, or 1.0E-6 mega bytes. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. Use this page to learn how to convert between kilobytes and megabytes. Type in your own numbers in the form to convert the units!
1 kilobyte to mega bytes = 0.00102 mega bytes
10 kilobyte to mega bytes = 0.01024 mega bytes
50 kilobyte to mega bytes = 0.0512 mega bytes
100 kilobyte to mega bytes = 0.1024 mega bytes
200 kilobyte to mega bytes = 0.2048 mega bytes
500 kilobyte to mega bytes = 0.512 mega bytes
1000 kilobyte to mega bytes = 1.024 mega bytes
You can do the reverse unit conversion from mega bytes to kilobyte, or enter any two units below:
A kilobyte is a unit of information or computer storage equal to 1024 bytes, assuming a binary system. This is not a standard SI definition, which would use kibibyte to represent 1024 bytes. However, most people have requested the more common usage, so the non-SI version is used on this site.
The SI prefix "mega" represents a factor of 106, or in exponential notation, 1E6.
So 1 megabyte = 106 bytes.
The definition of a byte is as follows:
A byte is the basic unit of measurement of information storage in computer science. In many computer architectures it is a unit of memory addressing, consisting of 8 bits.
Since computer memory comes in base two rather than 10, a large portion of the software and computer industry use binary estimates of the SI-prefixed quantities, while producers of computer storage devices prefer the SI values. This is why a computer hard drive advertised with a "100 GB" decimal storage capacity actually contains no more than 93 GB of 8-bit (power of 2) addressable storage.
