How to use this Bytes to Bits Converter 🤔

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

  1. Enter the input Bytes value in the text field.
  2. The calculator converts the given Bytes into Bits in realtime ⌚ using the conversion formula, and displays under the Bits label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Bits value is re-calculated, just like that.
  3. You may copy the resulting Bits 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 Bytes to Bits?

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

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

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

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider a video file that takes up 2,000,000,000 bytes of space.
Convert this file size from bytes to Bits.

Answer:

Given:

The data storage of video file in bytes is:

Data Storage(Bytes) = 2000000000

Formula:

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

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

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of video file, Data Storage(Bytes) = 2000000000 in the above formula.

Data Storage(Bits) = 2000000000 × 8

Data Storage(Bits) = 16000000000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2000000000 B is equal to 16000000000 b.

The data storage of video file is 16000000000 b, in bits.

2

Consider a database record that requires 1,000,000,000 bytes of storage.
Convert this storage from bytes to Bits.

Answer:

Given:

The data storage of database record in bytes is:

Data Storage(Bytes) = 1000000000

Formula:

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

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

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of database record, Data Storage(Bytes) = 1000000000 in the above formula.

Data Storage(Bits) = 1000000000 × 8

Data Storage(Bits) = 8000000000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 1000000000 B is equal to 8000000000 b.

The data storage of database record is 8000000000 b, in bits.

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.

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.
