How to Convert Bits to Bytes
To convert bits to bytes, divide the value by 8.
The Formula
Bytes = Bits ÷ 8
Key Fact
1 byte = 8 bits
Tip: To convert bytes back to bits, multiply by 8.
Bits to Bytes
Convert bits (b) to bytes (B) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.
b
B
1 b = 0.125 B
Full precision:0.125 B
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 bits to bytes, we divide by 8 because one byte equals exactly 8 bits.
1 byte = 8 bits
Since there are 8 bits in every byte, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 8 = 0.125 bytes
So 1 bits = 0.125 bytes.
Quick check: 0.125 × 8 = 1 bits
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 b = 0.125 B
1 ÷ 8 = 0.125
1 ÷ 8 = 0.125
Example 2: 5 b = 0.625 B
5 ÷ 8 = 0.625
5 ÷ 8 = 0.625
Example 3: 10 b = 1.25 B
10 ÷ 8 = 1.25
10 ÷ 8 = 1.25
