  1. Find the conversion factor from Gigabyte to Megabyte

    1 GB = 1,000,000,000 B · 1 MB = 1,000,000 B

    factor = 1,000,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000 = 1,000 MB per GB

  2. Multiply by the factor: GB cancels, leaving MB

    MB = GB × (MB per GB)

    1 GB × 1,000 MB per GB = 1,000 MB

How it works

1 GB = 1000 MB, so MB = GB × 1000

kB, MB, GB are decimal (powers of 1000). KiB, MiB, GiB are binary (powers of 1024) — IEC 80000-13.
