Converting the other way: megabytes to terabytes
terabytes = megabytes × 0.000001. So 120,000,000 megabytes is back to 120 terabytes; one megabyte is 0.000001 terabytes. See the megabytes to terabytes table.
Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 1000000: 120 × 1000000 ≈ 120,000,000 mb, against the exact 120,000,000 mb (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 terabyte is bigger than a megabyte, so the number of megabytes must come out larger than the number of terabytes. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
