kb to mb with format_number?

[Anon]

Hello,
Does anyone knows how I can transfer Kb to Mb. Is format_number and round function going to work? My attempts weren't sucessful at all. Please help.

There are 1024 KB in a MB. Simply divide your number of KB by that constant to convert to MB. number_format() or round() can then be used on the resulting number to limit it to a sensible number of significant digits.

ex.

$kb = 1900000;
$mb = number_format(($kb/1024), 2);

echo number_format($kb, 2) . " KB is equal to $mb Megs<br>\n";
