How many mega bites are in a giga bite ?

Answer 1

You may find this chart helpful:

Bit Single Binary Digit (1 or 0)
Byte 8 bits
Kilobyte (KB) 1,024 Bytes
Megabyte (MB) 1,024 Kilobytes
Gigabyte (GB) 1,024 Megabytes
Terabyte (TB) 1,024 Gigabytes
Petabyte (PB) 1,024 Terabytes
Exabyte (EB) 1,024 Petabytes

Answer 2

1 Bit = Binary Digit · 8 Bits = 1 Byte · 1024 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte · 1024 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte · 1024 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte · 1024 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte · 1024 Terabytes = 1 Petabyte · 1024 Petabytes = 1 Exabyte · 1024 Exabytes = 1 Zettabyte · 1024 Zettabytes = 1 Yottabyte · 1024 Yottabytes = 1 Brontobyte · 1024 Brontobytes = 1 Geopbyte

Answer 3

Depends on who answers.

1024 MB is 1GB is the proper exact measure

1000 MB is 1GB when it is quoted by generally the people selling the stuff.

ie, Iomega Zip disks, 100mb capacity but you can only get 95mb on them.

eg I was waiting in pc world for the guy at the pc clinic to finish with the person in front of me. A lady came up to me with a laptop box and asked if I knew anything about computers. She said it had a 20gb hard drive but when opening it in explorer it said something less. The reason was above, manufactures tend to say 1000mb to 1gb when really isn't.

Think bakers dozen(almost).

Answer 4

1024

Answer 5

1024

Answer 6

1024

Answer 7

Simple answer... 1 gigabyte = 1024 megabytes

if you type the following "megabytes in a gigabyte" into www.google.co.uk it will calculate for you. This works with most conversions..

Answer 8

Mathematically, 1024 Mb = 1 Gb

...BUT you should note that hard drive manufacturers and ohers who advertise computer storage use 1000Mb = 1Gb, so if you're looking for say a 30Gb hard drive it will actually only be something like 27Gb.

Answer 9

lots of people have probably said this before but there are 1024 megabytes in a gigabyte.

Happy New Year!
