minus-squareDominusOfMegadeuslinkfedilinkEnglish7•6 months agoGPT gave me this yesterday: To convert 500 KiB/s to a more common unit like megabits per second (Mbps): Understand the conversion factors: 1 KiB (Kibibyte) = 1024 bytes 1 byte = 8 bits Calculate the speed in bits per second: 500 KiB/s = 500 * 1024 bytes/s = 512000 bytes/s 512000 bytes/s * 8 bits/byte = 4096000 bits/s Convert bits per second to megabits per second: 1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bits/s (for simplicity, although technically 1 Mbps = 1,048,576 bits/s, the simpler metric is usually used for network speeds) 4096000 bits/s / 1,000,000 = 4.096 Mbps So, 500 KiB/s is approximately 4.1 Mbps. I was like, I just wanted the answer!

To convert 500 KiB/s to a more common unit like megabits per second (Mbps):
Understand the conversion factors:
Calculate the speed in bits per second:
Convert bits per second to megabits per second:
So, 500 KiB/s is approximately 4.1 Mbps.
