How many bits is 1 byte?

1 byte equals 8 bits.

How many bytes is 1 bit?

1 bit equals 0.125 bytes.

What is the difference between bytes and bits?

They measure the same quantity, but they may belong to different systems or be used in different contexts depending on region.

Where are bytes and bits used?

They are used in computing and digital storage. The most common unit depends on whether decimal (SI) or binary (IEC) prefixes are used.

Why does 1 byte equal 8 bits?

Because the units are defined with a fixed relationship. To convert bytes to bits, multiply by that factor.
