FAQ

Common questions

Short answers for the questions people usually have before trying a utility like this.

How many kilobytes are in 1 megabyte?

1 megabyte = 1,000 kilobytes, so the formula is kilobytes = megabytes × 1,000. The converter above applies it at full precision.

What is 20 MB in kilobytes?

20 MB = 20,000 KB.

Is a kilobyte 1000 or 1024 bytes?

This page uses the decimal SI units storage makers use: 1 KB = 1000 bytes, 1 MB = 1000 KB. Operating systems often count in binary (1 KiB = 1024 bytes), which is why a "1 TB" drive shows about 931 GB. The converter also offers KiB, MiB, GiB and TiB.

Is this converter exact?

Yes. It computes kilobytes = megabytes × 1,000 at full double precision; the tables round to six significant digits for readability.
