bit to byte
Please provide values below to convert bit [b] to byte [B], or change ↔.
bit [b]
Definition: The smallest unit of data in computing, representing a binary value of 0 or 1.
Historyandorigin: Coined in the 1940s, 'bit' is short for 'binary digit' and is fundamental in digital computing.
CurrentUse: Used in digital storage, networking, and processing.
funfact: Eight bits make up a byte, which is the standard unit of digital data.
byte [B]
Definition: A unit of digital data consisting of 8 bits.
Historyandorigin: Developed in the 1950s as the standard size for character encoding.
CurrentUse: The fundamental unit of storage in modern computing.
funfact: A byte can store a single character, such as 'A' or '1'.

How to Convert bit to byte
1 bit [b] = 0.125 byte [B]
1 byte [B] = 8 bit [b]
we use cross multiplication method
bit [b] → byte [B]
1 → 0.125
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.125=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.1875
