Bits to Kilobytes Converter

Convert bits (bit) to kilobytes (kB), with the formula, a conversion table and exact factors.

Change the values and press Calculate to work out your own figures.

Enter an amount of data, choose its unit and the unit you want. The answer is exact until it is shown, and the same value appears in every other unit.

A number, fraction (3/8), mixed number (1 1/2), scientific notation (2.5e6) or a simple sum such as 2*3.
The unit you want the answer in. Swap exchanges the two units.

1 bit = 0.000125 kB

Show the working
  1. 1 bit = 0.000125 kB
  2. 1 × 0.000125 = 0.000125 kB

How to convert bits to kilobytes

1 kB = 8,000 bit, so divide by 8,000 to go from bits to kilobytes (1 bit = 0.000125 kB).

kB = bit ÷ 8,000
bit = kB × 8,000

Worked example:

1 bit = 0.000125 kB
5 × 0.000125 = 0.000625 kB

About the units

Bits (bit)
Bits, a specialised unit. Definition: NIST: Prefixes for binary multiples (IEC 80000-13).
Kilobytes (kB)
Kilobytes, a metric unit. Decimal (SI) kilobyte = 1000^1 bytes. Many operating systems label the binary kibibyte (KiB) as 'kB'. Definition: NIST: Prefixes for binary multiples (IEC 80000-13).
