The formula of converting the Kilobit to Kilobyte is represented as follows :

kB = kbit / 8

Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Kilobit (kbit) to Kilobyte (kB). This way, we can try to simplify and reduce to an easy to apply formula.

FORMULA

Kilobyte = Kilobit / 8

STEP 1

Kilobyte = Kilobit x (1 / 8)

STEP 2

Kilobyte = Kilobit x 0.125

Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 kbit to kB, 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 kbit is equal to 1.25 kB.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

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