Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 1000000: 1,500 × 1000000 ≈ 1,500,000,000 kib, against the exact 1,572,864,000 kib (4.6% 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 gibibyte is bigger than a kibibyte, so the number of kibibytes must come out larger than the number of gibibytes. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
