Converting the other way: megabytes to kilobytes
kilobytes = megabytes × 1,000. So 0.15 megabytes is back to 150 kilobytes; one megabyte is 1,000 kilobytes. See the megabytes to kilobytes table.
Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.001: 150 × 0.001 ≈ 0.15 mb, against the exact 0.15 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 kilobyte is smaller than a megabyte, so the number of megabytes must come out smaller than the number of kilobytes. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
