Mebibit (Mibit)
Equal to 1024^2 bits
(Binary Unit)

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

Mibit = kB x (8x1000) / 10242

Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Kilobyte is Decimal where as the target unit Mebibit is Binary. In such scenario, first we need to convert the source unit to the basic unit - Byte - multiply with 8x1000, and then convert to target unit by dividing with 1024^2 .

Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Kilobyte (kB) to Mebibit (Mibit). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.

FORMULA

Mebibit = Kilobyte x (8x1000) / 10242

STEP 1

Mebibit = Kilobyte x (8x1000) / (1024x1024)

STEP 2

Mebibit = Kilobyte x 8000 / 1048576

STEP 3

Mebibit = Kilobyte x 0.00762939453125

If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 1 kB to Mibit, will be processed as below.

  1. = 1 x (8x1000) / 10242
  2. = 1 x (8x1000) / (1024x1024)
  3. = 1 x 8000 / 1048576
  4. = 1 x 0.00762939453125
  5. = 0.00762939453125
  6. i.e. 1 kB is equal to 0.00762939453125 Mibit.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

Definition : Kilobyte

A Kilobyte (kB) is a decimal unit of digital information that is equal to 1000 bytes (or 8,000 bits) and commonly used to express the size of a file or the amount of memory used by a program. It is also used to express data transfer speeds and in the context of data storage and memory, the binary-based unit of kibibyte (KiB) is used instead.

Definition : Mebibit

A Mebibit (Mib or Mibit) is a binary unit of digital information that is equal to 1,048,576 bits and is defined by the International Electro technical Commission(IEC). The prefix "mebi" is derived from the binary number system and it is used to distinguish it from the decimal-based "megabit" (Mb). 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.
