Petabytes to Bytes Converter

1 petabyte (PB) equals 1 × 1015 bytes (B).

Quick answer

  • 1 petabyte = 1 × 1015 bytes
  • 1 byte = 1 × 10-15 petabytes
  • Formula: B = PB × 1 × 1015

1 petabyte = 1 × 1015 bytes

How to convert petabytes to bytes

B = PB × 1 × 1015

To convert petabytes to bytes, multiply the number of petabytes by 1 × 1015.

Example: 18 PB to B

  1. Start with the value in petabytes: 18 PB.
  2. Multiply by 1 × 1015: 18 × 1 × 1015 = 1.8 × 1016.
  3. Result: 18 petabytes = 1.8 × 1016 bytes.

Going the other way, 1 byte = 1 × 10-15 petabytes, so to convert bytes back to petabytes you divide by the same number. See bytes to petabytes.
