Kilobyte to Kibibyte Conversion Formula

To convert from Kilobyte (kB) to Kibibyte (KiB), use the following formula:

 Kibibyte (KiB)\textbf{ Kibibyte} \text{ (KiB)}

=1000×11024× Kilobyte (kB)= 1000 \times \frac{1}{1024}\times \textbf{ Kilobyte} \text{ (kB)}

=0.9765625× Kilobyte (kB)= 0.9765625\times \textbf{ Kilobyte} \text{ (kB)}

With 11024\frac{1}{1024} is the ratio between the base units Kibibyte (KiB) and Byte (byte).

Example

Let's convert 5 Kilobyte (kB) to Kibibyte (KiB).

Using the formula:

5×0.9765625=4.88281255 \times 0.9765625 = 4.8828125

Therefore, 5 Kilobyte (kB) is equal to 4.88281254.8828125 Kibibyte (KiB).
