In this article I will show you how to convert 490 megabits into kilobits. Throughout the explanation below I might also call it 490 mbits to kbits. They are the same thing!
How to Convert Megabits to Kilobits
A megabit is greater than a kilobit. I know that a mbits is greater than a kbits because of something called conversion factors.
Put very simply, a conversion factor is a number that can be used to change one set of units to another, by multiplying or dividing it. So when we need to convert 490 megabits into kilobits, we use a conversion factor to get the answer.
The conversion factor for mbits to kbits is:
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 490 mbits to kbits by multiplying 1000 by the number of megabits we have, which is 490.
So, the answer to the question "what is 490 megabits in kilobits?" is 490000 kbits.
