Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.001: 18 × 0.001 ≈ 0.018 mb, against the exact 0.018432 mb (2.3% 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 kibibyte is smaller than a megabyte, so the number of megabytes must come out smaller than the number of kibibytes. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
