How to Convert Kilobits per Second to Megabits per Second

To convert a measurement in kilobits per second to a measurement in megabits per second, divide the data transfer by the following conversion ratio: 1,000 kilobits per second/megabit per second.

Since one megabit per second is equal to 1,000 kilobits per second, you can use this simple formula to convert:

megabits per second = kilobits per second ÷ 1,000

The data transfer in megabits per second is equal to the data transfer in kilobits per second divided by 1,000.

For example, here's how to convert 500 kilobits per second to megabits per second using the formula above.
megabits per second = (500 kbps ÷ 1,000) = 0.5 Mbps

Kilobits per second and megabits per second are both units used to measure data transfer. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
