Examples

1

Consider a software package that is 1,000,000 kilobytes in size.
Convert this file size from kilobytes to PetaBytes.

Answer:

Given:

The data storage of software package in kilobytes is:

Data Storage(KiloBytes) = 1000000

Formula:

The formula to convert data storage from kilobytes to petabytes is:

Data Storage(PetaBytes) = Data Storage(KiloBytes) × 256 / 281474976710645

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of software package, Data Storage(KiloBytes) = 1000000 in the above formula.

Data Storage(PetaBytes) = 1000000 × 256 / 281474976710645

Data Storage(PetaBytes) = 9.0949e-7

Final Answer:

Therefore, 1000000 kB is equal to 9.0949e-7 PB.

The data storage of software package is 9.0949e-7 PB, in petabytes.

2

Consider a photo album stored on a drive that takes up 500,000 kilobytes.
Convert this storage size from kilobytes to PetaBytes.

Answer:

Given:

The data storage of photo album in kilobytes is:

Data Storage(KiloBytes) = 500000

Formula:

The formula to convert data storage from kilobytes to petabytes is:

Data Storage(PetaBytes) = Data Storage(KiloBytes) × 256 / 281474976710645

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of photo album, Data Storage(KiloBytes) = 500000 in the above formula.

Data Storage(PetaBytes) = 500000 × 256 / 281474976710645

Data Storage(PetaBytes) = 4.5475e-7

Final Answer:

Therefore, 500000 kB is equal to 4.5475e-7 PB.

The data storage of photo album is 4.5475e-7 PB, in petabytes.
