Mbps to kBps Formula and Manual Conversion Steps

Megabit and Kilobyte are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Both are decimal units. One Megabit is equal to 1000^2 bits. One Kilobyte is equal to 1000 bytes. There are 0.008 Megabits in one Kilobyte. - view the difference between both units

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

kBps = Mbps x 1000 / 8

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

FORMULA

Kilobytes Per Second = Megabits Per Second x 1000 / 8

STEP 1

Kilobytes Per Second = Megabits Per Second x 125

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

  1. = 10 x 1000 / 8
  2. = 10 x 125
  3. = 1250
  4. i.e. 10 Mbps is equal to 1,250 kBps.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

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

Conversion Units

Definition : Megabit

A Megabit (Mb or Mbit) is a decimal unit of digital information that is equal to 1,000,000 bits and it is commonly used to express data transfer speeds, such as the speed of an internet connection and to measure the size of a file. In the context of data storage and memory, the binary-based unit of mebibit (Mibit) is used instead.

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.

Python Code for Mbps to kBps Conversion

You can use below code to convert any value in Megabits Per Second to Kilobytes Per Second in Python.

megabitsPerSecond = int(input("Enter Megabits Per Second: "))
kilobytesPerSecond = megabitsPerSecond * 1000 / 8
print("{} Megabits Per Second = {} Kilobytes Per Second".format(megabitsPerSecond,kilobytesPerSecond))

The first line of code will prompt the user to enter the Megabits Per Second as an input. The value of Kilobytes Per Second is calculated on the next line, and the code in third line will display the result.
