1 megabit equals 125,000 bytes

How to convert megabits to bytes

Lowercase b means bit; uppercase B means byte (8 bits). Decimal kB, MB and GB use powers of 1000; binary KiB, MiB and GiB use powers of 1024. Choose the label that matches the source measurement.

Formula
B = Mb × 125000

One megabit is 125000 bytes, so a single multiplication converts any value.

Example
1,250,000 B = 10 × 125000

byteB

Eight bits. The standard addressable unit of computer memory.

Sources and precision

Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
