Worked examples
Converting 5 tebibytes
Multiply 5 by 1.0995116e+09. That gives 5,497,558,138.88 kilobytes. A quick sanity check: one tebibyte is larger than one kilobyte, so the number should get bigger — and it does.
Converting 72 tebibytes
72 × 1.0995116e+09 = 79,164,837,199.87 kilobytes. Working backwards, 79,164,837,199.87 ÷ 1.0995116e+09 returns 72 tebibytes, which confirms the factor is applied the right way round.
