Byte (B)
A byte is 8 bits — the standard unit for file sizes, RAM, and storage capacity in computing.
Bytes and their multiples describe hard drives, downloads, and memory on phones and computers.

Exact conversion factors in both directions, plus a worked example.
1 B = 0.000001 MB
1 MB = 1000000 B
To convert byte to megabyte, multiply by 0.000001.
To convert megabyte to byte, multiply by 1000000.
Example: convert 10 B to MB
10 × 0.000001 = 0.00001 MB
Short background on the units used in this conversion.
A byte is 8 bits — the standard unit for file sizes, RAM, and storage capacity in computing.
Bytes and their multiples describe hard drives, downloads, and memory on phones and computers.
A decimal megabyte (MB) is exactly 1,000,000 bytes (1,000 KB) — not to be confused with the binary mebibyte (MiB).
Decimal MB sizes photo attachments, app downloads, and cloud storage tiers on many consumer devices.
MB = B × 0.000001B = MB × 1,000,000, using the same exact factors as this converter.Jump to any data storage conversion starting from byte — including the reverse direction and every other unit in our dataset.
