There are .000125 gigabytes in a megabit.

A bit is the base unit

A byte is 8 bits

A kilo is 1000, therefore a kilobyte is 8000 bits.

A mega is 10000000.

A giga is 1000000000

although many people use a p.c every day of their lives this is a question many get stuck on
the smallest computer size is a byte(1b)1000 bytes make a kilobyte(kb),then a 100kb make a megabyte(mb)
megabytes are probally the most used of all computer capacity,a 100mb makes a gigabyte(gb)and 1000gb makes a terrabyte(tb),then a 1000terrabyte is a petabyte(pb)
petabytes and anything after that are only used on servers and corporate p.c,s
1000 petabytes are a exabyte(eb),then a 1000exabytes are a zettabyte(zb),and finally 1000 zettabytes are a yottabyte(yb)
here is a table with the symbols ect.............
kilobyte (kB) 103 = 10001 210 kibibyte (KiB) 210
megabyte (MB) 106 = 10002 220 mebibyte (MiB) 220
gigabyte (GB) 109 = 10003 230 gibibyte (GiB) 230
terabyte (TB) 1012 = 10004 240 tebibyte (TiB) 240
petabyte (PB) 1015 = 10005 250 pebibyte (PiB) 250
exabyte (EB) 1018 = 10006 260 exbibyte (EiB) 260
zettabyte (ZB) 1021 = 10007 270 zebibyte (ZiB) 270
yottabyte (YB) 1024 = 10008 280 yobibyte (YiB) 280
you probally may never go higher than a 500gb,but more and more home users are now using capacitys of over a terrabyte(1000gb)so you never know
Bill gates,ex cheif of microsoft once said(apparently around 1985) .."512kb should be more than enough for most home users"
this is a statement that he denies to this day,but how wrong he was
i hope this has helped
good luck mate!

--> UNDERSTANDING GIGABYTES
When people buy computers, they're told they're getting a hard drive of
a certain size--80 gigabytes, perhaps. But when they check the computer
they find only 74GB. Where did the other 6GB go?

This is the difference between marketing and math. As far as marketers
are concerned, 80 billion bytes is 80GB. But it's not. A gigabyte is
1.074 billion bytes (2 to the power of 30). If you divide 80 by 1.074,
you'll get 74.6. That's the true number of gigabytes.

These round numbers are fairly easy to remember. A kilobyte is 2 to
the power of 10 (or 2^10), a megabyte is 2^20, and a terabyte (1.0995
trillion bytes!) is 2^40.

The answer to your question is that there are 0.000116415321826934814453125 Gigabytes in a Megabit. (or 1 10,000th of a GB).

1 Mb - 125,000 bytes or 125kb

1GB = 1,073,741,824 bytes


125,000/1,073,741,824

However, I believe that you should be asking how many Megabits (Mb) are in a Gigabyte (GB).

There are approximately 8589934.6 Mb is a GB.

1 Mb - 125,000 bytes or 125kb

1GB = 1,073,741,824 bytes

1,073,741,824/125,000 = 8589.934592 or ~ 8590

Or you should be asking how many Megabytes (MB) are in a Gigabyte (GB)

1 MB = 1,048,576 bytes

1GB = 1,073,741,824 bytes

1,073,741,824/1,048,576 = 1024MB ina GB


Very few people use Megabit (Mb) these days except for when discussing data transmission speeds. Your are probably thinnking of Megabytes (MB).

Hope this helps!!!

Do you mean megabytes or megabits?

In a gigabyte, there is 1024 megabytes.


If you meant megabits, there are 8 bits to 1 byte, 1024 bytes to a kilobyte .......etc.

1024 Megabytes equals 1 Gigabyte

I have heard that, but I usually hear "gigs". I'll bet when Tb is a more commonly used word that you'll see "tees" come into common use. For the others: Kb is kay (no "s" for plural), Mb is megs, and we'll just have to wait until those others are common enough to require a shorter slang term.
