# Bytes to kilobytes

**1 byte in kilobytes: 1 B = 0.001 kB**

kB = B × 0.001

To convert bytes to kilobytes, multiply by 0.001. The table below gives the values people look up most often, and the converter works for any number.

## How the conversion works

The relationship is kB = B × 0.001. Both units measure data, so the conversion is a fixed factor that never changes.

> Kilobyte: Decimal: 1,000 bytes.

## Common questions

### How many kilobytes are in one byte?

One byte equals 0.001 kilobytes. kB = B × 0.001.

### How do you convert bytes to kilobytes?

Use kB = B × 0.001. So 10 B is 0.01 kB.

### How many bytes are in one kilobyte?

One kilobyte equals 1,000 bytes, which is the reverse of the conversion above.

### Is there more than one kind of kilobyte?

Decimal: 1,000 bytes.
