Giga refers to billions while mega refers to millions. Therefore 5 GB would be assumed to equal 5,000 MB. However, because these numbers a based in binary number system it's a little more complicated.

One kilobyte equals 1,024 bytes. One megabyte equals 1,024 kilobytes and one gigabyte equals 1,024 megabytes.

So, 5 GB is actually equal to (5 x 1,024) 5,120 MB.
