    Hello. Great resource; however, noted that on 'Calculating Units of Mass' page that states grams to milligrams should be multiplied by 10. Should read 'multiplied by 1000'.

    I am confused, one kilobyte is equal to 1024 bytes or 1000 bytes? I see different opinions about this definition, for example https://www.gbmb.org/kb-to-bytes http://www.global-converter.com/main-data-quantity-converter/ https://www.to-convert.com/en/computer/convert-kb-to-byte.php I understand there are different definitions, my question is which one of the two is commonly used.

      1024 is 2 to the 10th power - it is a binary number used in computing 0's & 1's

    I think you have made an error with the volume, it should actually be titled capacity (how much something holds). Volume is the amount f space an object occupies.
