How to use it
- Type the value in the gigabits box.
- Read the result in megabits as you type, and pick the precision you need.
- Swap the direction to convert back, or copy the result.
How it is calculated
Mbit = Gbit × 1,000
Multiply the value in gigabits by 1,000 to get megabits.
Example
To convert 25 Gbit to megabits: 25 × 1,000 = 25,000 Mbit.

About the units
- Gigabit
- A decimal unit equal to exactly 10^9 bits, which is 125,000,000 bytes.
- Megabit
- A decimal unit equal to exactly 1,000,000 bits (10^6 bits), which is 125,000 bytes. Common in internet speeds.
Limits and caveats
- Results are rounded for display and computed with the browser's floating point precision (about 15 significant digits).
- Both unit factors are exact by their official definitions.
Questions about this tool
How many megabits are in one gigabit?
1 Gbit = 1,000 Mbit exactly.
How do I convert gigabits to megabits?
Use Mbit = Gbit × 1,000. For example, 25 Gbit = 25,000 Mbit.
How many gigabits are in one megabit?
1 Mbit = 0.001 Gbit.
Why does a 1 TB drive show about 931 GB on my computer?
Drive makers count 1 TB as 10^12 bytes, while Windows divides by 2^30 and labels the result GB even though it is really GiB. So 10^12 ÷ 1,073,741,824 gives about 931.32, and no space is missing.
What is the difference between a kilobyte and a kibibyte?
A kilobyte (kB) is a decimal unit of 1000 bytes and a kibibyte (KiB) is a binary unit of 1024 bytes. The same split applies to mega and mebi, giga and gibi, and the gap grows at each step.
