Difference between Megabyte (MB) and Gigabyte (GB)
Megabyte (MB): Megabyte is a unit of digital information storage. megabyte is equal to 1,024 kilobytes or 1,048,5761,048,576 bytes in the binary system (2^20 bytes) or 1,000 kilobytes or 1,000,0001,000,000 bytes in the SI (International System of Units) decimal system. Megabytes are commonly used to measure the size of files, software, documents, and other digital storage capacities.
Gigabyte (GB): A gigabyte is a unit of digital information storage larger than a megabyte. One gigabyte is equal to 1,024 megabytes in the binary system (2^10 megabytes) or 1,000 megabytes in the SI decimal system. Gigabytes are used to measure larger storage capacities, such as hard drive sizes, memory capacities, and the size of multimedia files.
Megabyte (MB) and Gigabyte (GB) conversion formula example. (binary)
To convert megabytes (MB) to gigabytes (GB) in the binary system (also converting mebibytes to gibibytes), you can use the following conversion factor -
Gigabytes =
Megabytes
1024
Let's calculate for 256 megabytes
Gigabytes =
256 MB
1024
= 0.25 GB
So, 256 megabytes is approximately equal to 0.25 gigabytes in the binary system. Note that in the binary system, the prefixes "Mebi" and "Gibi" represent different values compared to the decimal system.
Megabyte (MB) and Gigabyte (GB) conversion formula example. (SI)
To convert megabytes (MB) to gigabytes (GB) in the SI (International System of Units) decimal system, you can use the following conversion factor -
Gigabytes =
Megabytes
1000
Let's calculate for 256 megabytes
Gigabytes =
256 MB
1000
= 0.256 GB
So, 256 megabytes is equal to 0.256 gigabytes in the SI decimal system.
