How many kilo bytes in a gigabyte?

well, there are two sets of values for magnitude prefixes when it comes to data, there is the SI standard where each prefix represents a multiple of 10^3 that is a kilobyte is 10^3 bytes, a megabyte is 10^6 bytes, a gigabyte is 10^9 bytes.

Alternatively there is the binary-friendly 2^10 (1024) that is a kilobyte is 2^10 bytes, a megabyte is 2^20 bytes and a gigabyte is 2^30 bytes.

Unfortunately the way most organizations measure these units is a mix these two schemes - kilobytes are almost always 1024 bytes, megabytes are usually 1024 kilobytes and gigabytes are almost always 1000 megabytes...

so the answer to your question is one of 10^6 kB, 2^20kB or 10^3*2^10kB.

How much is Kb and MB?

KB - Kilo Byte MB - Mega Byte GB - Giga Byte TB - Tera Byte while you may think kilo is 1000 and mega is 1 million... giga is 1 billion... and so on; it actually is not. a Kilo byte is actually 2^10 Byte which is 1024 Bytes. Kilo Byte = 2^10 Bytes = 1024 Bytes Mega Byte = 2^20 Bytes = 1048576 Bytes Giga Bytes = 2^ 30 Bytes = 1073741824 Bytes and so on... close enough right?

How many kilo bytes become 1 gama byte?

Assuming you mean gigabyte (there's no such thing as gamabyte). 1gigabyte=1024megabyte=1048576kilobytes=1073741824bytes.


How do you convert kilo bytes into giga bytes?

To get a pretty much correct answer, multiply the KB by one million. (There are about one million KB in one GB).

How many bytes is 1 gigabytes?

What equals approximately 1 million bytes?

This is approximately one gigabyte. In reality, one gigabyte is 1024 MB which gives approximately 1 073 741 824 bytes, but especially when purchasing storage media, one billion bytes is one gigabyte. If you are looking for something more general, bytes are a method of storing computer information (which is effectively just one's and zero's) and a byte is a very small measure whereas a gigabyte is relatively large with average USB drives being approximately 8 gigabytes.
