kbit to KiB - Conversion Formula and Steps
Kilobit and Kibibyte are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Kilobit is a decimal standard unit where as Kibibyte is binary. One Kilobit is equal to 1000 bits. One Kibibyte is equal to 1024 bytes. There are 8.192 Kilobits in one Kibibyte.
| Source Data Unit | Target Data Unit |
|---|---|
|
Kilobit (kbit)
Equal to 1000 bits
(Decimal Unit) |
Kibibyte (KiB)
Equal to 1024 bytes
(Binary Unit) |
The formula of converting the Kilobit to Kibibyte is represented as follows :
Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Kilobit is Decimal where as the target unit Kibibyte is Binary. In such scenario, first we need to convert the source unit to the basic unit - Bit - multiply with 1000, and then convert to target unit by dividing with 8x1024 .
Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Kilobit (kbit) to Kibibyte (KiB). This way, we can try to simplify and reduce to an easy to apply formula.
Kibibyte = Kilobit x 1000 / (8x1024)
Kibibyte = Kilobit x 1000 / 8192
Kibibyte = Kilobit x 0.1220703125
If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 5000 kbit to KiB, will be processed as below.
- = 5000 x 1000 / (8x1024)
- = 5000 x 1000 / 8192
- = 5000 x 0.1220703125
- = 610.3515625
- i.e. 5,000 kbit is equal to 610.3515625 KiB.
(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)
