In this article I will show you how to convert 988 gigabytes into megabytes. Throughout the explanation below I might also call it 988 gbytes to mbytes. They are the same thing!
How to Convert Gigabytes to Megabytes
A gigabyte is greater than a megabyte. I know that a gbytes is greater than a mbytes 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 988 gigabytes into megabytes, we use a conversion factor to get the answer.
The conversion factor for gbytes to mbytes is:
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 988 gbytes to mbytes by multiplying 1000
by the number of gigabytes we have, which is 988.
So, the answer to the question "what is 988 gigabytes in megabytes?" is 988000 mbytes.
