MB to GB
Converts megabytes to gigabytes using both 1000 and 1024 and shows both answers exactly.
You convert megabytes to gigabytes by dividing by 1,000 or by 1,024. A 5,000 MB data plan works out to 5 GB under the decimal rule and 4.88 GB under the binary one.
A 700 MB file takes up 0.7 GB by its decimal description and 0.68 GB by the binary rule. For a single file the difference is small, but across a hundred files it adds up to whole gigabytes.
Formula
Decimal: GB = MB ÷ 1,000. Binary: GB = MB ÷ 1,024.
