Miles into kilometres
5 miles
8.04672 kilometres
One mile is exactly 1.609344 kilometres, so the result is the input multiplied by that figure.
US gallons into litres
2.5 US gallons
9.46352946 litres
US gallons are smaller than imperial gallons, so the same figure in litres differs from a UK gallon conversion.
O narzędziu Unit Converter
A unit converter switches a value from one measurement system to another, so you can compare figures quoted in metres with those in feet, or kilograms with pounds. This tool covers length, mass, volume, speed and temperature, which handle everyday needs when travelling, cooking, shopping or reading technical specifications.
Data size needs extra care because storage is measured using two conventions. The MB, or megabyte, follows decimal units, where 1 GB equals 1,000 MB. The MiB, or mebibyte, follows binary units, where 1 GiB equals 1,024 MiB. Choosing the right unit matters when you check a file size, a download allowance or the capacity of a drive.
Jak korzystać z narzędzia Unit Converter
- Choose a category, such as length, mass, volume, speed, temperature or data size.
- Enter the value you want to convert.
- Select the unit you are converting from and the unit you need.
- Read the result and check its unit label before you use it.
Typowe zastosowania
- Comparing a recipe's metric quantities with imperial measures
- Checking a drive's capacity when a listing uses GiB

Najczęstsze pytania
What is the difference between MB and MiB?
MB stands for megabyte, a decimal unit where 1 MB equals 1,000,000 bytes. MiB stands for mebibyte, a binary unit where 1 MiB equals 1,048,576 bytes. The difference becomes more noticeable at larger sizes, so 1 GB is 1,000 MB while 1 GiB is 1,024 MiB. Operating systems report sizes in different ways, so check which unit a file or drive uses.
How do I convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?
Multiply the Celsius value by 9, divide by 5, then add 32. For example, 20 degrees Celsius equals 68 degrees Fahrenheit. The unit converter performs this calculation for you, so you can enter a value and select the scale you need.
How many kilograms are in a pound?
One pound equals 0.453592 kilograms, so a pound is a little under half a kilogram. Conversely, one kilogram equals about 2.20462 pounds. For everyday cooking or shopping, rounding to 0.45 kg or 2.2 lb is usually accurate enough, but use the full figure for technical or scientific calculations.
How do I convert miles per hour to kilometres per hour?
Multiply the speed in miles per hour by 1.609344 to get kilometres per hour. For example, 60 mph equals 96.56 km/h. You can also select the speed category in the converter, enter the value and choose both units to see the result without doing the calculation yourself.
Is 1 GB the same as 1 GiB?
No. 1 GB equals 1,000,000,000 bytes, while 1 GiB equals 1,073,741,824 bytes, which is about 7 per cent more. Storage manufacturers usually label capacity in GB. Many operating systems show binary sizes with the label GB, so a drive can appear smaller than its box suggests. Check the unit used by each figure before comparing them, especially when planning a backup or download.
