How to Convert Bytes to Megabytes

To convert a measurement in bytes to a measurement in megabytes, divide the data storage by the following conversion ratio: 1,048,576 bytes/megabyte.

Since one megabyte is equal to 1,048,576 bytes, you can use this simple formula to convert:

megabytes = bytes ÷ 1,048,576

The data storage in megabytes is equal to the data storage in bytes divided by 1,048,576.

For example, here's how to convert 5,000,000 bytes to megabytes using the formula above.
megabytes = (5,000,000 B ÷ 1,048,576) = 4.768372 MB

Bytes and megabytes are both units used to measure data storage. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Byte?

A byte is a group of eight binary digits or bits. Most computers use one 8-bit byte as the smallest size of addressable memory.

Multiples of bytes are represented using SI prefixes such as kilo, mega, giga, or tera.

Bytes can be abbreviated as B; for example, 1 byte can be written as 1 B.

You can use our binary calculator to convert a number of bits to other number systems such as hex or decimal.

What Is a Megabyte?

In the International System of Quantities, one megabyte is equal to 1,000,000 bytes, or 106 bytes. However, the megabyte is commonly used interchangeably with the mebibyte (MiB), which is equal to 1,048,576 bytes or 220 bytes in the binary system.

So, depending on the context, one megabyte is equal to 1,000,000 or 1,048,576 bytes.

Megabytes can be abbreviated as MB; for example, 1 megabyte can be written as 1 MB.
