--> 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.

Hi,
This is the simple table...
1 KB = 1024 Bytes
1 MB = 1024 KB
1 GB = 1024 MB
1 TB = 1024 GB

1000
there are 1024 bytes in a kilobyte, but 1000 KB = 1 MB and 1000 MB = 1 GB

1000.
1000 kb = 1 mg
1000 mb = 1gb
1000gb = 1 tb

1000 MB = 1GB
1024 MB to be exact.
