I wish life were that simple. Unfortunately, the techies got there and decided to refer to 210 as "kilo" as well. So a kilobyte is not 1000 bytes but 210 = 1024 bytes. Near enough to 1000 but not "always" as in the original answer.

Answer 2

To remember how many meters are in a kilometer, think of the word "kilo" as meaning "1000." Therefore, there are 1000 meters in a kilometer.

Answer 3

1000
