To convert a measurement in gigabytes to a measurement in kilobytes, multiply the data storage by the following conversion ratio: 1,048,576 kilobytes/gigabyte.

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

kilobytes = gigabytes × 1,048,576

The data storage in kilobytes is equal to the data storage in gigabytes multiplied by 1,048,576.

For example, here's how to convert 5 gigabytes to kilobytes using the formula above.
kilobytes = (5 GB × 1,048,576) = 5,242,880 kB

How Many Kilobytes Are in a Gigabyte?

There are 1,048,576 kilobytes in a gigabyte, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
