How to Convert Megabits to Megabytes

To convert a measurement in megabits to a measurement in megabytes, divide the data storage by the following conversion ratio: 8 megabits/megabyte.

Since one megabyte is equal to 8 megabits, you can use this simple formula to convert:

megabytes = megabits ÷ 8

The data storage in megabytes is equal to the data storage in megabits divided by 8.

For example, here's how to convert 5 megabits to megabytes using the formula above.
megabytes = (5 Mb ÷ 8) = 0.625 MB

How Many Megabytes Are in a Megabit?

There are 0.125 megabytes in a megabit, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

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.
