Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 1000000: 250 × 1000000 ≈ 250,000,000 kb, against the exact 268,435,456 kb (6.9% 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 kilobyte, so the number of kilobytes must come out larger than the number of gibibytes. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
