Typical values: 0.5 KiB is about 512 B, and 5 KiB works out to roughly 5120 B. Because the ratio is fixed at 1024, you can scale any amount linearly — doubling the kibibytes doubles the bytes.

Drive makers count in powers of 1000 while many systems display powers of 1024, which is why advertised and reported capacities differ.
