Generally, kigabyte is a misspelling of gigabyte.
Or it can also be considered a misspelling of kilobyte. Some people refer to a kilobyte as a kigabyte, but kigabyte generally isn't a misspelling as much as a mistake. See below (if you're in a hurry, I recommend viewing the short version).
Super Long:
In math (and computing), 1024 is our main number, where 1024 of a unit equals one of another unit:
A kilobyte is 1024 bytes. 1024 kilobytes is 1 megabyte. 1024 megabytes is equal to a gigabyte. 1024 gigabytes equals a terabyte. 1024 terabytes is 1 petabyte. 1024 petabytes is 1 exabyte. 1024 exabytes is 1 zettabyte. 1024 zettabytes is equal to 1 yottabyte.
The following terms are questioned:
1024 yottabytes is 1 brontobyte.
1024 brontobytes equals 1 geopbyte.
Short Version:
In math (and computing),
1024 bytes = 1 kb
1024 kb = 1 mb
1024 mb = 1 gb
1024 gb = 1 tb
1024 tb = 1 pb
1024 pb = 1 eb
1024 eb = 1 zb
1024 zb = 1 yb
The following terms are questioned:
1024 yb = 1 bb
1024 bb = 1 Geopbyte

How many kigabyte in a migabyte?
Kigabyte is a misspelling of gigabyte, and a kigabyte is what some people think a kilobyte is (see question: "What is a kigabyte"). Because you said how many kigabyte are in a migabyte (a misspelling of megabyte), I think the question you are asking is how many kilobytes are in a megabyte. The answer to that is below. 1024 kilobytes = 1 megabyte (1024 kb = 1 mb)
How many kilobytes are in a gigabyte?
There are actually two answers to this, depending on what method you want to use to determine the answer.Standard definition The standard definition for kilobyte is 1,000 (10^3) bytes, just like there are 1,000 meters in a kilometre.Likewise, the standard definition for gigabyte is 1,000,000,000 (10^9) bytes. Dividing, this means there are 1,000,000 (1 million) kilobytes (kB) in a gigabyte (GB).This is the definition used for hard drives, portable memory drives (memory cards, USB drives), DVDs, Blu-ray disks, and most measures of performance. Some software (such as Mac OS X and the Linux kernel) uses this definition when displaying file and disk sizes. Memory manufacturer usage Memory manufacturers use a non-standard system that conflicts with the way everyone else measures. By their definition, a kilobyte (written "KB") is 1,024 (2^10) bytes, and a gigabyte (written "GB") is 1,073,741,824 (2^30) bytes.The correct name for 1,024 bytes is "kilobinary byte" or "kibibyte". The correct name for 1,073,741,824 bytes is "gigabinary byte" or "gibibyte".This is approximately equal to the above, but you may need to know it to figure out exact numbers:By this definition, 1 "GB" = 1,048,576 "KB" More correctly, 1 GiB = 1,048,576 KiBThis definition is used by memory manufacturers and some software, like Microsoft Windows.
