MB to Gibit Formula and Manual Conversion Steps
Megabyte and Gibibit are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Megabyte is a decimal standard unit where as Gibibit is binary. One Megabyte is equal to 1000^2 bytes. One Gibibit is equal to 1024^3 bits. There are 134.217728 Megabytes in one Gibibit. - view the difference between both units
| Source Data Unit | Target Data Unit |
|---|---|
|
Megabyte (MB)
Equal to 1000^2 bytes
(Decimal Unit) |
Gibibit (Gibit)
Equal to 1024^3 bits
(Binary Unit) |
The formula of converting the Megabyte to Gibibit is represented as follows :
Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Megabyte is Decimal where as the target unit Gibibit is Binary. In such scenario, first we need to convert the source unit to the basic unit - Byte - multiply with 8x1000^2, and then convert to target unit by dividing with 1024^3 .
Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Megabyte (MB) to Gibibit (Gibit). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.
Gibibit = Megabyte x (8x10002) / 10243
Gibibit = Megabyte x (8x1000x1000) / (1024x1024x1024)
Gibibit = Megabyte x 8000000 / 1073741824
Gibibit = Megabyte x 0.007450580596923828125
Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 MB to Gibit, will be processed as below.
- = 10 x (8x10002) / 10243
- = 10 x (8x1000x1000) / (1024x1024x1024)
- = 10 x 8000000 / 1073741824
- = 10 x 0.007450580596923828125
- = 0.07450580596923828125
- i.e. 10 MB is equal to 0.07450580596923828125 Gibit.
(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)
You can use above formula and steps to convert Megabyte to Gibibit using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.
