Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.000001: 17 × 0.000001 ≈ 0.000017 tb, against the exact 0.000017 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 megabyte is smaller than a terabyte, so the number of terabytes must come out smaller than the number of megabytes. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
