Exact conversion factors in both directions, plus a worked example.
1 KiB = 1024 B
1 B = 0.0009765625 KiB
To convert kibibyte to byte, multiply by 1024.
To convert byte to kibibyte, multiply by 0.0009765625.
Example: convert 10 KiB to B
10 × 1024 = 10240 B
Short background on the units used in this conversion.
A kibibyte (KiB) is exactly 1,024 bytes — the binary IEC prefix used by RAM manufacturers and many Linux tools.
KiB and MiB appear in memory diagnostics, developer tools, and Windows binary file-size displays.
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.
B = KiB × 1,024KiB = B × 0.0009765625, using the same exact factors as this converter.Jump to any data storage conversion starting from kibibyte — including the reverse direction and every other unit in our dataset.
