Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.001: 250 × 0.001 ≈ 0.25 mb, against the exact 0.25 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.
