All our computing needs are becoming dependent on just one internet browser day by day, in which "Internet speed" has now become a very important term. Tell Entertainment or any communication system, where people can download movies, games, any files in their home, watch TV or buy DVDs from the market. In fact, all things depend on the exact calculation, which you do not know. So this article is discussed in Bit Vs byte, Megabit Vs MB, Gigabit Vs Gigabyte- which will answer all of your questions.

Megabit Vs Megabyte

When Megabit and Megabyte are pronounced, it will be different to hear, but when they are in short form, in Mb or MB, but there is no difference in pronunciation, but their meanings are not the same. And the problem arises only when you start looking at two types of data at the same time, the Internet speed and the file size saved on the hard drive. Generally the lowercase English letter "b" is used in the expression of Megabyte, which means "Mb" or "Mbit" - and when it comes to Internet speed terms, almost all companies use the Megabit term.

Suppose you have 8 Mbit / s (8Mb / s) internet connection, that means you will be able to transfer data to 8 Mbitbit speed per second. But, while downloading a file from the Internet, you might see, downloading the file in 1MB / s (1MB / s) speed, what is the matter? Are you getting less speed? No, no! Here you can call 8 megabits, and say 1 mbbit speed speed, the measurement in both cases is the same.

Because, Mb and MB are the same in two term pronouncements, not one thing. Here Mb refers to Megabit and MB is defined as Megabyte. Remember, you're downloading a 750 MB file, which means technically 750 MB in size, and at the same time its size is 6,000 Mbit (6000 Mb).

Bit Vs byte

In the case of computer network term bits and bytes are counted as standard units when transmitting digital data of the network. There are 8 bits per byte. Bits in the case of computer data are the smallest part of any data, or can say that this bit is atomic in data. Bit is too small for an email or general text message. Simply understand, each character in this article is a bit different, and thousands of characters here combine to create an full article.

In fact, the original unit is a bit or byte, but before that the Mega or Giga term is added as a prefix, so that the big number is short and easy to pronounce and understand. Mugabit is meant to mean millions of bits and Gigabit is a billion bits, now you have to think, how much the number of mega and giga prefixes can be used. But here's the original term but bit and byte, as long as the mega, giga, terra etc. are fitted. If not going very technically, calculation is quite simple, 8 bit = 1 byte, or else you can say that the bit is 1/8 of the byte or 1 byte is 1 bit to 8 times bigger - as you say, the calculation is coming the same.

So, what is the matter of your internet connection? You have got 8 megabytes of connection, but when downloading 1 megabytes / second speed is displayed, it is absolutely right. Once your connection is 1 mb / sec, you will get 1 megabit = 1/8 megabyte = 0.125 megabytes or 125 kbit / s speed while downloading. Your ISP gives you a bandwidth rate as a bit / second, but the operating system or software software calculates data bytes / second, and this is why the difference is seen. But by looking at the correct calculations to understand whether you get the right speed.

So you can easily get a megabyte or gigabyte results from Megabit or Gigabit using normal calculator. You have to give 8 megabytes to the next, then get a megabyte result. If you want to easily convert your data unit using Google search. Remember your Internet speed is 5 megabits / second (5 Mb / s) Google search now, "5 megabits to megabytes" You can easily get results.

If you think this to be useful information.
