It is sometimes reffering to either 106 (1,000,000) bytes or 220 (1,048,576) bytes, depending on context.
Technically I would default to 220 (1,048,576) bytes
1 MB or MegaByte
1 megabyte = 1 048 576 bytes
1 megabyte = 1 048 576 bytes
1 Million bytes = 1 Megabyte
1 MB = 1024 Kilo bytes 1 KB = 1024 bytes 2.5 Mb = 2.5 * 1024 * 1024 = 2,621,440 bytes
1 byte = 8 bits 1 megabyte = 1 million bytes = 8 million bits That's the rounded, popular version. To be perfectly technical and accurate about it, "One megabyte" refers to a unit of data communication or storage that consists of 1,048,576 bytes, which is 8,388,608 bits. The reason is that the count of digital storage capacity and addressability is always a power of 2 .
A mb is bigger. 1024 bytes = 1 kilobyte (kb)and 1024kb = 1 megabyte (mb)
1 K = 1,024 bytes 1,024 K = 1 MB (megabyte) or 1,048,576 bytes 8 MB = 1,048,576 bytes x 8 = 8,388,608 bytes 8,388,608 bytes x 8 = 67,108,864 bits ( There are 8 bits to 1 byte. )
1 Mb is 1,000 Kb or 1,000,000 bytes. 12.5 Mb translates to 12,500,000 bytes.
1,024,000 bytes. A KB is a kilobyte, standing for 1,000 bytes. A MB is a megabyte, standing for 1,000,000 bytes. A GB is a gigabyte, standing for 1,000,000,000 bytes (or 1,000 MB). A TB is a terabyte, standing for 1,000,000,000,000 bytes (or 1,000 GB).
A kilobyte is 1024 bytes. A megabyte is 1024 kilobytes. A gigabyte is 1024 megabytes. So, 1,000 megabytes X 1024 kilobytes/megabyte = 1,024,000 kilobytes. 1,024,000 kilobytes X 1,024 bytes/kilobyte = 1,048,576,000 bytes. You also might want to check out mebibytes, gibibytes, and the like.
No. 1 megabyte is 1,048,576 bytes. 1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes 1 megabyte = 1024 kilobytes
