What is the difference between a megabyte and gigabyte?

Answer by  eddy (15)

Megabyte is 1000 times less than a Gigabyte. One Megabyte isn't enough even for an mp3 music song. One Gigabyte is a lot space to have more than 100 music songs. Sometimes even a small movie.

The megabyte (1 MB = 1000 kilobytes) and gigabyte (GB) are the capacity of computer unit, but there are the different between megabyte and gigabyte, due to the megabyte is smaller capacity when you compare with the gigabyte by 1000 megabyte equal to 1 gigabyte ( or = 1000000 kilobytes).

A megabyte is approximately a million and a gigabyte is approximately a billion bytes. The precise values are 1,048,576 and 1,073,741,824 bytes, or 2^20 and 2^30. Some standards organizations (e. g. IEC) use the terms "mebibits" and "gibibits" to avoid confusion with other SI units. However, JEDEC (a memory standards organization) and the rest of the world use megabyte and gigabyte.
