Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.001: 12 × 0.001 ≈ 0.012 tb, against the exact 0.012 tb (0.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A gigabyte is smaller than a terabyte, so the number of terabytes must come out smaller than the number of gigabytes. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
