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: 40 GB = 327,680 Megabits

• Speed: 15 Mbps

• Time: 327,680 ÷ 15 = 21845 seconds ≈ 6 hours 4 minutes
