megabyte to mebibyte
Convert megabyte (MB) to mebibyte (MiB). Use an editable data storage converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 MB = 0.9536743164 MiB
Conversion formula
One megabyte equals 0.9536743164 mebibyte. Multiply your value in megabyte by this factor to get mebibyte. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 megabyte:5 × 0.9536743164 = 4.768371582 MiB

About these measurements
Data storage expresses a number of bits or bytes.
The base reference used here is the byte. One megabyte is 1,000,000 base units; one mebibyte is 1,048,576 base units.
Important distinctions
Decimal prefixes use powers of 1,000; binary prefixes use powers of 1,024. One byte is eight bits.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
