Conversion Process

This conversion uses Bit per Second as the base unit. We'll first convert megabit/second to Bit per Second, then convert from Bit per Second to byte/second.

Step 1: Convert from megabit/second to Bit per Second

917.99 × 1048576 = 962582282

Result: 962582282 Bit per Second

Step 2: Convert from Bit per Second to byte/second

962582282 × 0.125 = 120322785

Result: 120322785 byte/second

Direct Conversion Factor

917.99 × 131072 = 120322785

Direct conversion: 917.99 megabit/second = 120322785 byte/second

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How many bytes/second are in 917.99 megabits/second?

    There are 120322785 bytes/second in 917.99 megabits/second.

  • What is 917.99 megabits/second in bytes/second?

    917.99 megabits/second is equal to 120322785 bytes/second. To perform this conversion yourself using the convention, multiply 917.99 by 131072.

  • How to convert 917.99 megabits/second to bytes/second?

    To convert 917.99 megabits/second to bytes/second using the convention, multiply 917.99 by 131072. This gives you 120322785 bytes/second.

  • What is the formula to convert megabits/second to bytes/second?

    The formula to convert from megabits/second to bytes/second using the convention is: bytes/second = megabits/second × 131072. Using this formula, 917.99 megabits/second equals 120322785 bytes/second.

  • What is the difference between megabits/second and bytes/second?

    The main difference between megabits/second and bytes/second is that 1 megabits/second equals 131072 bytes/second 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/second bigger than bytes/second?

    megabit/second is larger than byte/second. Specifically, using the convention, 1 megabits/second equals 131072 bytes/second.

  • 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.
