I've had this site bookmarked for over 7 years now: http://www.convert-me.com/en/
It converts anything, Data sizes, food measurements, etc)
On bottom right is link for Computer Storage ( http://www.convert-me.com/en/convert/computer )
Make sure you scroll down a little, the top half is in Bits (ie Megabits) and the bottom half is in bytes (ie Megabytes).
So upon typing in 10 in the 3rd from bottom field (megabyte) it shows that 1024 Kb is 10Mb.
I use a formula on my website for displaying a list of files in a certain folder and displaying the file size in realtime, like this:
total_size = file.size
If (total_size/1024/1024) > 999 Then
total_size = formatnumber((total_size/1024/1024/1024),2) & " Gb's"
Else
total_size = formatnumber((total_size/1024/1024),2) & " Mb's"
End If
You don't need to understand it, but basically what it says is to take the file size (which is in bytes) and dvide by 1024 and divide by 1024 again. 1024 is the magic number because there are 24 extra bytes in 1Mb. So when you think of 1Mb, you should always think of 1024 and not 1000.
So based on this info, the way to do it in your head, or a calculator, is to multiple the Mb's by 1024. Thus multiplying 10 times 1024 results in 10240 Kb which is the correct answer.
If you wanted to convert 10 Mb into bytes and not kilobytes, then you would multiply 10 times 1024 times 1024.

One Megabyte (1 MB) equals to 1024 Kilobytes (KB). That means 10 MB = 10,240 KB. Hope that helps.
And its MB not Mb, cause b is bits, and B is bytes.

For some reason operating systems measure in binary numbers (eg KB=1024) but drive manufacturers all measure their stuff in decimal numbers (eg KB=1000). This seems like nothing, but when you're talking about thousands and millions of KB (MB and GB respectively) that really throws you off. For example a 250GB hard drive shows up as 232GB in Windows. Don't ask me why, but that's the way it is.
Anyway, in decimel, 10MB is 10,000KB. In binary, 10MB is 10,240KB.

1M = 1024KB.
10M = (1024KB * 10) = 10240KB.
