# Megabytes to bits

**1 megabyte in bits: 1 MB = 8,000,000 bit**

bit = MB × 8,000,000

To convert megabytes to bits, multiply by 8,000,000. 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 bit = MB × 8,000,000. Both units measure data, so the conversion is a fixed factor that never changes.

> Megabyte: Decimal: 1,000,000 bytes.

## Common questions

### How many bits are in one megabyte?

One megabyte equals 8,000,000 bits. bit = MB × 8,000,000.

### How do you convert megabytes to bits?

Use bit = MB × 8,000,000. So 10 MB is 80,000,000 bit.

### How many megabytes are in one bit?

One bit equals 1.25 × 10^-7 megabytes, which is the reverse of the conversion above.

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

Decimal: 1,000,000 bytes.
