Best Answer

A gigabit is a billion bits, but the term is often used to refer to a billion bits per second. A megabyte is a million bytes, and a byte is 8 bits. Thus, a gigabit is 125 megabytes (if you use the prefixes as multiples of 1,000) or 128 megabytes (if you use multiples of 1,024).

However, for measuring data transfer rates, each byte of data typically has two additional bits for error-correction, so a gigabit per second is only 100 megabytes per second.

2 GB equals to how many MB?

There seems to be a repetitive pattern of people misusing the data size abbreviation which result in confusing answers, capitalization is very important. GB is a gigabyte, which should not be confused with Gb which stands for a Gigabit. 1 gigabyte is equal to 1024 megabytes 1 gigabit is equal to 1024 megabits 8 megabits is equal to 1 megabyte 2GB * 1024 (MB in a GB) = 2048 megabytes 2Gb * 1024 (Mb in a Gb) = 2048 Mb / (8Mb in a MB) = 256 megabytes


Is a gigabit bigger or a megabit?

A gigabit is 1000 times the size of a megabit, I believe. If this is the same as bytes (I believe the values are 1/8 of bytes), meaning 1000 (1024, really) megabytes = 1 gigabyte, then 1000 (1024, I assume) megabits = 1 gigabit. Either way, giga is always greater than mega, whatever the suffix is.


How many mbs in 19gb?

I'm not sure what you mean if that is megabit(Mb) or Megabyte (MB), but I will provide both answer.Megabit (Mb) 19.5Mb = 0.164 Gigabit (Gb)Megabyte (MB) 19.5MB = 0.019 Gigabyte (GB)Hope this help.


How many bytes of data are contained in a gigabit?

A gigabyte is equal to 1,024 megabytes. A megabyte is equal to 1,024 kilobytes. And a kilobyte is equal to 1,024 bytes. Therefore one gigabyte is equal to 1,073,741,824 bytes.


How many MB make 3.15 GB?

That depends on what exactly you mean by "3gb". Because a uncapitalized "b" actually stands for bit, while a capital "B" stands for byte. In case you mean 3 gigabit (formal notation: 3 Gb or 3 Gbit): 1 gigabit equals 1,000,000,000 bits, times 3 equals 3,000,000,000 bit, divided by 8 equals 375,000,000 bytes (as 8 bits equal 1 byte). 375,000,000 equals 375 MB (megabytes). In case you actually mean 3 gigabyte (3GB), then answer is quite simple. 3 gigabytes equal 3 times 1024 megabytes: 3072 MB.
