What percentage is 14KB from 8MB?

In most units the relationship between kilo and mega is mega = 103 * kilo, that is mega = 1000*kilo. However, because data are usually stored and processed in binary rather than decimal form, mega = 210 * kilo which gives mega = 1024*kilo. This gives two answers to the question: decimal basis: 100*14/8000 = 0.175% binary basis: 100*14/(8*1024) = 0.1709 % approx.
