Millibytes and Gigabytes system?

Question

Ok, what is the system of like millibytes and gigabytes and kilabytes and things? Like, what irder do they go in, in order from like smallest to largest, and how many of each type make up one of the next size byte? Thanks!!!

Answer 1

bit
byte
kilobyte
megabyte
gigabyte
terabyte
petabyte


Exact Conversion
1,024 Byte = 1 Kilobyte (KB)
1,024 Kilobyte (KB) = 1 Megabyte (MB)
1,073,741,824 Bytes = 1 Gigabyte (GB)
1 Gigabyte (GB) = 1,024 Megabyte (MB)
1 Terabyte = 1,024 Gigabyte (GB)
1 Petabyte = 1,048,576 Gigabyte (GB)

Answer 2

As far as computers are concerned:
A kilobyte is 1024 bytes
A megabyte is 1,048,576 bytes (or 1024 squared)
A gigabyte is 1,073,741,824 bytes (or 1024 cubed)

However, as far as your hard drive is concerned (in an unformatted state) 1,000,000 bytes equal a megabyte, and 1,000,000,000 bytes equal a gigabyte.

It's a difference of opinion, for the most part, and that's why you can't sue Seagate for selling a 250gb drive that only shows up as ~230gb after formatting.

Answer 3

A bit is the smallest piece of information that computers use. For simplicity, a PC uses bits in groups of 8 called bytes (8 bits = 1 byte).
Bytes may appear as Bytes, KiloBytes (1,024 bytes), MeghaBytes (1,048,576 bytes), GigaBytes (1,073,741,824), TeraBytes (about 1,099,511,000,000 bytes), or PetaBytes (about 1,125,899,900,000,000 bytes).

Hope this was useful..

Answer 4

Hi. KB is KiloBytes (1000) . MB is MegaBytes (1,000,000) , GB is GigaBytes (1,000,000,000).

Answer 5

yeah u tell me i dont know either!!!!!!!!!!!
