Complete the following sentence with a power of 10 greater than 1.

A gigabyte is​ _________ times as large as a kilobyte.

A gigabyte is **1,000,000** times as large as a kilobyte.

This is because:

1 gigabyte = \( 10^9 \) bytes  
1 kilobyte = \( 10^3 \) bytes

So, \( \frac{10^9}{10^3} = 10^6 = 1,000,000 \).

Would you like more details or have any questions?

Here are 5 related questions to expand your understanding:

1. How many kilobytes are in a megabyte?
2. How many bytes are in a gigabyte?
3. What is the difference between a gigabyte and a gibibyte (GiB)?
4. How many terabytes are in a petabyte?
5. How do kilobytes relate to bits?

**Tip:** Powers of 10 are often used in computing, but make sure to distinguish between binary (base 2) and decimal (base 10) definitions for accurate conversions!
