How to use this Bits to Bytes Converter 🤔

Follow these steps to convert given data storage from the units of Bits to the units of Bytes.

  1. Enter the input Bits value in the text field.
  2. The calculator converts the given Bits into Bytes in realtime ⌚ using the conversion formula, and displays under the Bytes label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Bytes value is re-calculated, just like that.
  3. You may copy the resulting Bytes value using the Copy button.
  4. To view a detailed step by step calculation of the conversion, click on the View Calculation button.
  5. You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.

What is the Formula to convert Bits to Bytes?

The formula to convert given data storage from Bits to Bytes is:

Data Storage(Bytes) = Data Storage(Bits) / 8

Substitute the given value of data storage in bits, i.e., Data Storage(Bits) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the data storage in bytes, i.e., Data Storage(Bytes).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider a simple file that is 1,000,000,000 bits in size.
Convert this file size from bits to Bytes.

Answer:

Given:

The data storage of file in bits is:

Data Storage(Bits) = 1000000000

Formula:

The formula to convert data storage from bits to bytes is:

Data Storage(Bytes) = Data Storage(Bits) / 8

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of file, Data Storage(Bits) = 1000000000 in the above formula.

Data Storage(Bytes) = 1000000000 / 8

Data Storage(Bytes) = 125000000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 1000000000 b is equal to 125000000 B.

The data storage of file is 125000000 B, in bytes.

2

Consider an image that is stored in a highly compressed format, taking up 10,000,000 bits of space.
Convert this image size from bits to Bytes.

Answer:

Given:

The data storage of image in bits is:

Data Storage(Bits) = 10000000

Formula:

The formula to convert data storage from bits to bytes is:

Data Storage(Bytes) = Data Storage(Bits) / 8

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of image, Data Storage(Bits) = 10000000 in the above formula.

Data Storage(Bytes) = 10000000 / 8

Data Storage(Bytes) = 1250000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10000000 b is equal to 1250000 B.

The data storage of image is 1250000 B, in bytes.

Bits

A bit is the most basic unit of digital information. Bit represents a binary value of either 0 or 1. It forms the foundation of all digital computing, where combinations of bits can be used to encode data such as numbers, letters, and multimedia. The bit is fundamental to everything from the data stored in a smartphone to complex instructions processed by supercomputers.

Bytes

A byte is a collection of 8 bits and is one of the most commonly used units of digital information. It typically represents one character, such as a letter, number, or symbol, in a computer's memory. Bytes are the building blocks of larger data units and are used extensively in defining the storage and memory capacities of electronic devices.
