To convert a measurement in megabits to a measurement in kilobytes, multiply the data storage by the following conversion ratio: 128 kilobytes/megabit.
Since one megabit is equal to 128 kilobytes, you can use this simple formula to convert:
kilobytes = megabits × 128
The data storage in kilobytes is equal to the data storage in megabits multiplied by 128.
How Many Kilobytes Are in a Megabit?
There are 128 kilobytes in a megabit, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 Mb = 128 kB
Megabits and kilobytes are both units used to measure data storage. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

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.

What Is a Kilobyte?
In the International System of Quantities, one kilobyte is equal to 1,000 bytes, or 103 bytes. However, the kilobyte is commonly used interchangeably with the kibibyte (KiB), which is equal to 1,024 bytes or 210 bytes in the binary system.
So, depending on the context, one kilobyte is equal to 1,000 or 1,024 bytes.
Kilobytes can be abbreviated as kB; for example, 1 kilobyte can be written as 1 kB.
