MB to KiB - Conversion Formula and Steps

Megabyte and Kibibyte are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Megabyte is a decimal standard unit where as Kibibyte is binary. One Megabyte is equal to 1000^2 bytes. One Kibibyte is equal to 1024 bytes. There are 0.001024 Megabytes in one Kibibyte.

Megabyte (MB)
Equal to 1000^2 bytes
(Decimal Unit)
Kibibyte (KiB)
Equal to 1024 bytes
(Binary Unit)

The formula of converting the Megabyte to Kibibyte is represented as follows :

KiB = MB x 10002 / 1024

Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Megabyte 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 - Byte - multiply with 1000^2, and then convert to target unit by dividing with 1024 .

Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Megabyte (MB) to Kibibyte (KiB). This way, we can try to simplify and reduce to an easy to apply formula.

FORMULA

Kibibyte = Megabyte x 10002 / 1024

STEP 1

Kibibyte = Megabyte x (1000x1000) / 1024

STEP 2

Kibibyte = Megabyte x 1000000 / 1024

STEP 3

Kibibyte = Megabyte x 976.5625

If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 1000 MB to KiB, will be processed as below.

  1. = 1000 x 10002 / 1024
  2. = 1000 x (1000x1000) / 1024
  3. = 1000 x 1000000 / 1024
  4. = 1000 x 976.5625
  5. = 976562.5
  6. i.e. 1,000 MB is equal to 976,562.5 KiB.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

Definition : Kibibyte

A Kibibyte (KiB) is a unit of digital information that is equal to 1024 bytes (or 8,192 bits) and is defined by the International Electro technical Commission(IEC). The prefix "kibi" is derived from the binary number system and it is used to distinguish it from the decimal-based "kilobyte" (KB). 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.
