1GB = how many mb?



Answers:
1024mb = 1Gb

Many companies "cheat" and use 1000, usually to rob you of a bit of space (some companies use 1000 for download limits, or for disk sizes, web space etc).
1024 megabytes to a gigabyte
1024
1024
1024.
For easy math, 1000.
1GB = 1024MB. But for those hard disk, memory card, mp3, etc. developer, they take 1GB as 1000MB.
Technically it is 1024 but most people use 1000 for convenience.
1024 bytes = 1 kilo byte [KB]
1024 kilo bytes=1 megabyte [MB]
1024 megabytes=1gigabyte [GB]
1024 gigabytes=1 terabytes [TB]
It goes something like this, 1 byte(smallest),1000 bytes = 1 kilobyte,1000 kilobytes,(kb) = 1 megabyte (mb),1000 megabytes =1 gigabyte (gb). hope that helps.
1 GB = 1024MB
1024mb =1gb
1024
or
1000
1024 MB
It is 1024, not 1000 as it seems at first.

The reason why 1024 is used instead of 1000 is because the computer works only with 0s and 1s, so when it addresses its data, it uses binary addresses. So, just as it makes sense to use a base 2 power (1024 = 2^10) for a binary system; just like it makes sense to use a base 10 power (1000 = 10^3) for a decimal system.
