Converting from Bit (b) to Kilobyte (kB) | Data storage (1KB=1024B)

What is Bit (b)

A bit (b) is the smallest unit of data in computing and digital communications. It can have a value of either 0 or 1, representing the basic binary digit used in computers to store and process information.

What is Kilobyte (kB)

A kilobyte (kB) is a multiple of the unit byte, used to quantify digital information. It is equal to 1,024 bytes in the binary system, or 1,000 bytes in the decimal system. Kilobytes are commonly used to describe the size of small files or storage capacities.
