5 kilo bits per second = 5,000 bits/sec.
transmitting 5,000 bits/sec for 20 minutes =
5,000 X 60 x 20 = 6,000,000 = 6M
So at the speed of 5 kilobits/second you can transmit 6 Megabits in 20 minutes.

Y'all are forgetting about overhead. Any network traffic needs a header for each packet of data transmitted. It would depend on the window size, which specifies how much data is allowed in each packet. So, the actual data throughput would be less than figured by the other answers I've seen. It may be about 5% less.

Actually you would be trasmitting 5.8593756 megabits in 20 minutes at 5 kilobits per sec
5 kilobits * .004882813 megabits * 1200 (secs or 20 min) = 5.8593756 megbits

6 megabits per 20 minutes
5000 (bits per second) * 60 (secs in a min) * 20 (minutes) = 6 million bits
gimme my best answer

Haven't we been down this road before, lol? 49.152 megabits.
