Megabits per second to Megabytes per second

1 megabit per second = 0.125 megabytes per second · 1 MB/s = 8 Mbit/s

1 megabit per second = 0.125 megabytes per second

How it’s calculated

MB/s = Mbit/s ÷ 8

  • Divide the value in megabits per second by 8.
  • Equivalently, multiply by 0.125.
  • 1 Mbit/s = 0.125 MB/s · 1 MB/s = 8 Mbit/s
Show worked solutionFactor, unit cancellation and rounding, step by step

  1. Find the conversion factor

    By definition 1 Mbit/s = 1000000 bit/s and 1 MB/s = 8000000 bit/s, so 1 MB/s = 8 Mbit/s. Source: IEC 80000-13 (decimal and binary prefixes).

  2. Multiply by the factor written as a fraction

    Put Mbit/s in the denominator so it cancels, leaving MB/s.

  3. Calculate (unrounded)

  4. Round the answer

    Rounded to 5 significant figures.

Answer: 0.125 MB/s
