A megabyte is a unit of information or computer storage equal to approximately one million bytes. It is commonly abbreviated MB. Mb is used for megabits

Bytes again. A KB is a kilobyte. Actually it is 1,024 bytes, but Kilo (1,000) is easier to remember. MB (Megabyte) is a thousand kilobytes. A Gigabyte (GB) is a thousand megabytes.

A megabyte is a unit of information or computer storage equal to approximately one million bytes. A byte is commonly used as a unit of storage measurement in computers, regardless of the type of data being stored. In the old days of 8-bit microprocessors (1980s) a byte waqs 8 bits, and a nibble was half a byte...

In computers, data is stored as a sequence of bits using the binary numeric system. A bit is a binary digit. It can hold either the value 0 or 1. A sequence of eight bits is called a 'byte'. 1024 bytes make up a 'kilobyte'. A 'megabyte' is a sequence of 1024 such kilobytes.

for every letter there are 8 bits ( or 1 byte). 1 bit can either be 1 or 0. zero means off and 1 means on.
8 bits = 1 byte
1024 bytes= 1 kilobyte
1024 kilobytes= 1 megabyte

1million bytes =1MB
1thousand Kb's= 1MB
A gigabyte (derived from the SI prefix giga-) is a unit of information or computer storage equal to one billion (that is, a thousand million) bytes.
A mebibyte (a contraction of mega binary byte) is a unit of information or computer storage, abbreviated MiB
kilobyte (derived from the SI prefix kilo-, meaning 1000) is a unit of information or computer storage equal to either 1024 or 1000 bytes. It is commonly abbreviated KB, kB, Kbyte or kbyte

One million bytes of information.
In a 7 megapixel camera, a picture is 7 megabytes. therefore there are seven million little pieces of information that make up that picture.
