The bit (a portmanteau of binary digit) is a basic unit of information used in computing and digital communications.
| Name of unit | Symbol | Definition | Relation to SI units | Unit System |

| bit | b | = 1 bit | = 1 bit | Metric system SI |
| bits | kilobits | bits | kilobits |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | = 0.001 | 6 | = 0.006 |
| 2 | = 0.002 | 7 | = 0.007 |
| 3 | = 0.003 | 8 | = 0.008 |
| 4 | = 0.004 | 9 | = 0.009 |
| 5 | = 0.005 | 10 | = 0.01 |
The kilobit is a multiple of the unit bit for digital information or computer storage. The prefix kilo- (symbol k) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 103 (1 thousand), and therefore, 1 kilobit = 103bits = 1000 bits. The kilobit has the unit symbol kbit or kb.
