Decimal prefixes are powers of ten: kilo is 10³, mega is 10⁶, milli is 10⁻³ and micro is 10⁻⁶. Binary prefixes such as kibi (2¹⁰) and mebi (2²⁰) are different and are commonly used for digital storage. Always check whether a product or standard uses decimal or binary units.
Important note
The calculation is performed locally from the listed unit definitions. Display results are rounded for readability; high-precision and regulated work should use the governing standard and appropriate significant figures.
