(Basic Unit)
Kibibit (Kibit)
Equal to 1024 bits
(Binary Unit)

The formula of converting the Byte to Kibibit is represented as follows :

Kibit = Byte x 8 / 1024

Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Byte (B) to Kibibit (Kibit). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.

FORMULA

Kibibit = Byte x 8 / 1024

STEP 1

Kibibit = Byte x 0.0078125

If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 256 Byte to Kibit, will be processed as below.

  1. = 256 x 8 / 1024
  2. = 256 x 0.0078125
  3. = 2
  4. i.e. 256 Byte is equal to 2 Kibit.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)
