The formula of converting the Kilobits Per Second to Kilobytes Per Second is represented as follows :

kBps = kbps / 8

Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Kilobits Per Second (kbps) to Kilobytes Per Second (kBps). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.

FORMULA

Kilobytes Per Second = Kilobits Per Second / 8

STEP 1

Kilobytes Per Second = Kilobits Per Second x (1 / 8)

STEP 2

Kilobytes Per Second = Kilobits Per Second x 0.125

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

  1. = 10 / 8
  2. = 10 x (1 / 8)
  3. = 10 x 0.125
  4. = 1.25
  5. i.e. 10 kbps is equal to 1.25 kBps.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

You can use above formula and steps to convert Kilobits Per Second to Kilobytes Per Second using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.
