b to KiB - Conversion Formula and Steps

Bit and Kibibyte are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Bit is one of the very basic digital unit where as Kibibyte is a binary unit. One Kibibyte is equal to 1024 bytes. There are 8,192 Bits in one Kibibyte. - view the difference between both units

The formula of converting the Bit to Kibibyte is represented as follows :

KiB = Bit / (8x1024)

Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Bit (b) to Kibibyte (KiB). This way, we can try to simplify and reduce to an easy to apply formula.

FORMULA

Kibibyte = Bit / (8x1024)

STEP 1

Kibibyte = Bit / 8192

STEP 2

Kibibyte = Bit x (1 / 8192)

STEP 3

Kibibyte = Bit x 0.0001220703125

Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 Bit to KiB, will be processed as below.

  1. = 10 / (8x1024)
  2. = 10 / 8192
  3. = 10 x (1 / 8192)
  4. = 10 x 0.0001220703125
  5. = 0.001220703125
  6. i.e. 10 Bit is equal to 0.001220703125 KiB.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

You can use above formula and steps to convert Bit to Kibibyte using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.

Definition : Bit

A Bit (short for "binary digit") is the basic unit of information in computing and digital communications. It is a binary value, meaning it can have one of two values=> 0 or 1. Bits are used to represent data in computers and other electronic devices. They are the building blocks of digital information, and are used to store, transmit, and process data.

Definition : Kibibyte

A Kibibyte (KiB) is a unit of digital information that is equal to 1024 bytes (or 8,192 bits) and is defined by the International Electro technical Commission(IEC). The prefix "kibi" is derived from the binary number system and it is used to distinguish it from the decimal-based "kilobyte" (KB). It is widely used in the field of computing as it more accurately represents the amount of data storage and data transfer in computer systems.
