Frequently asked questions

Why do KB/MB/GB conversions sometimes look wrong compared to what I expect?

This uses the binary standard (1 KB = 1024 bytes), which some contexts instead express as decimal (1 KB = 1000 bytes) — that discrepancy is the classic source of storage-size confusion.

Are the weight conversions exact?

Yes — these use standard defined conversion factors (e.g. 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg exactly), not rounded approximations.
