How Is This Calculated?

We use the standard formula: Time = File Size ÷ Speed

The tricky part is unit conversion. ISPs advertise speed in Megabits per second (Mbps), but file sizes are in Megabytes (MB) or Gigabytes (GB). Since 1 Byte = 8 bits:

• File size: 100 MB = 800 Megabits

• Speed: 5 Mbps

• Time: 800 ÷ 5 = 160 seconds ≈ 2 minutes 40 seconds
