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: 250 GB = 2,048,000 Megabits

• Speed: 30 Mbps

• Time: 2,048,000 ÷ 30 = 68267 seconds ≈ 18 hours 57 minutes
