Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between Kilobits per second and Megabytes per second.
What is a Kilobit per second (Kbps)?
A Kilobit per second is a unit used to measure data transfer rates and is based on "Decimal multiples of bits". The symbol for Kilobit per second is Kbps or kb/s or kbit/s. There are 8,000 Kilobits per second in a Megabyte per second.
What is a Megabyte per second (MBps)?
A Megabyte per second is a unit used to measure data transfer rates and is based on "Decimal multiples of bits". The symbol for Megabyte per second is MBps or MB/s. There are 0.000125 Megabytes per second in a Kilobit per second.
Conversion Formula
Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.
The formula to convert from Kilobits per second to Megabytes per second is:
Megabytes per second = Kilobits per second ÷ 8,000
Conversion Example
Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from Kilobits per second to Megabytes per second (Kbps to MBps).
Kilobits per second to Megabytes per second Conversion Example
Task: Convert 35,000 Kilobits per second to Megabytes per second (show work) Formula: Kbps ÷ 8,000 = MBps Calculations: 35,000 Kbps ÷ 8,000 = 4.375 MBps Result: 35,000 Kbps is equal to 4.375 MBps
