To convert a measurement in kilobits to a measurement in megabits, divide the data storage by the following conversion ratio: 1,024 kilobits/megabit.
Since one megabit is equal to 1,024 kilobits, you can use this simple formula to convert:
megabits = kilobits ÷ 1,024
The data storage in megabits is equal to the data storage in kilobits divided by 1,024.
Kilobits and megabits are both units used to measure data storage. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
