Typical values: 0.5 KB is about 0.0005 MB, and 100 KB works out to roughly 0.1 MB. Because the ratio is fixed at 0.001, you can scale any amount linearly — doubling the kilobytes doubles the megabytes.
Drive makers count in powers of 1000 while many systems display powers of 1024, which is why advertised and reported capacities differ.
