Convert 120 Megabits to Kilobits
120 Megabit = 122880 Kilobit
Conversion Process
This conversion uses Bit as the base unit. We'll first convert Megabit to Bit, then convert from Bit to Kilobit.
Step 1: Convert from Megabit to Bit
120 × 1048576 = 125829120
Result: 125829120 Bit
Step 2: Convert from Bit to Kilobit
125829120 × 0.000976563 = 122880
Result: 122880 Kilobit
Direct Conversion Factor
120 × 1024 = 122880
Direct conversion: 120 Megabit = 122880 Kilobit
Frequently Asked Questions
How many Kilobits are in 120 Megabits?
There are 122880 Kilobits in 120 Megabits.
What is 120 Megabits in Kilobits?
120 Megabits is equal to 122880 Kilobits. To perform this conversion yourself using the convention, multiply 120 by 1024.
How to convert 120 Megabits to Kilobits?
To convert 120 Megabits to Kilobits using the convention, multiply 120 by 1024. This gives you 122880 Kilobits.
What is the formula to convert Megabits to Kilobits?
The formula to convert from Megabits to Kilobits using the convention is: Kilobits = Megabits × 1024. Using this formula, 120 Megabits equals 122880 Kilobits.
What is the difference between Megabits and Kilobits?
The main difference between Megabits and Kilobits is that 1 Megabits equals 1024 Kilobits using the convention. Note that data storage units commonly use two conventions: the decimal (SI) based on powers of 1000 (kB, MB, GB, etc.) and the binary (IEC) based on powers of 1024 (KiB, MiB, GiB, etc.). This calculator uses the convention.
Is Megabits bigger than Kilobits?
Megabit is larger than Kilobit. Specifically, using the convention, 1 Megabits equals 1024 Kilobits.
Why is there confusion between KB and KiB, MB and MiB, etc.?
Historically, "kilobyte" (KB) was often used informally to mean 1024 bytes (2^10). However, the SI prefix "kilo" officially means 1000 (10^3). This led to confusion. The IEC introduced binary prefixes like kibibyte (KiB) specifically for 1024 bytes, mebibyte (MiB) for 1024 KiB, etc., to provide clarity. SI prefixes (kB, MB, GB) are now correctly used for powers of 1000, while IEC prefixes (KiB, MiB, GiB) are used for powers of 1024.
What is the difference between bits and bytes?
A bit is the smallest unit of data, representing a binary value of either 0 or 1. A byte is a common unit of digital information that consists of 8 bits. Data storage capacity is typically measured in bytes and their larger multiples.
