Question makes no sense.
1 gigabyte = 1024 megabytes
1 megabyte = 1024 kilobytes
1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes
1 byte = 8 bits or 2 nibbles
1 nibble = 1/2 byte (4 bits) Not really used since the days of 4 bit processors

--> 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.
Few people are going to fill up that so-called 80GB drive, regardless
of the stated size. Still, I wish marketers were more honest about
hard drive sizes. It should be easy to understand what you're
really getting.

1024 megabytes is one gigabyte.
If you are talking about 1024 BYTES only then that 1/1,000,000 (one / one millionth) of a gigabyte.

1024 byte = 1.024 kilobyte = 0.001024 megabyte = 0.000001024 gigabyte
or
1024 byte = 0.000001024 gigabyte ... I think this is the answer to your question.......
