Convert bytes to megabytes
megabytes = bytes × 0.000001
One byte is 0.000001 megabytes, so multiply by 0.000001 to convert. That factor is exact by definition. A byte is 8 bits. Network speeds are quoted in bits per second and file sizes in bytes, so a 100 Mbps line moves at most 12.5 MB per second.
