How to Convert Gigabits to Megabits
Joe is the creator of Inch Calculator and has over 20 years of experience in engineering and construction. He holds several degrees and certifications.
To convert a measurement in gigabits to a measurement in megabits, multiply the data storage by the following conversion ratio: 1,024 megabits/gigabit.
Since one gigabit is equal to 1,024 megabits, you can use this simple formula to convert:
megabits = gigabits × 1,024
The data storage in megabits is equal to the data storage in gigabits multiplied by 1,024.
How Many Megabits Are in a Gigabit?
There are 1,024 megabits in a gigabit, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 Gb = 1,024 Mb
Gigabits and megabits are both units used to measure data storage. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
You can use our Gbps to Mbps converter to convert data transfer times in gigabits per second to megabits per second.
What Is a Gigabit?
In the International System of Quantities, one gigabit is equal to 1,000,000,000 bits, or 109 bits. However, the gigabit is commonly used interchangeably with the gibibit (Gib), which is equal to 1,073,741,824 bits or 230 bits in the binary system.
So, depending on the context, one gigabit is equal to 1,000,000,000 or 1,073,741,824 bits.
Gigabits can be abbreviated as Gb; for example, 1 gigabit can be written as 1 Gb.

What Is a Megabit?
In the International System of Quantities, one megabit is equal to 1,000,000 bits, or 106 bits. However, the megabit is commonly used interchangeably with the mebibit (Mib), which is equal to 1,048,576 bits or 220 bits in the binary system.
So, depending on the context, one megabit is equal to 1,000,000 or 1,048,576 bits.
Megabits can be abbreviated as Mb; for example, 1 megabit can be written as 1 Mb.
