Look up kilo-in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Kilo (from the Greek ÏÎ¯Î»Î¹Î¿Î¹, literally a thousand) is a decimal unit prefix in the metric system denoting multiplication by one thousand. It has been used in the International System of Units where it has the unit symbol k, in lower case.t uses kilo as meaning 2 10 = 1024, because of the mathematical coincidence that 2 10 is approximately 10 3. The reason for this application is that binary values natively used in computing are base 2 and not the base 10 which is used for the SI prefixes.
The kilobyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information. The International System of Units (SI) defines the prefix kilo as 1000 (103); therefore one kilobyte is 1000 bytes. The unit symbol for the kilobyte is kB. In information technology, particularly in reference to main memory capacity, kilobyte is traditionally used to denote 1024 (210) bytes.
