85 B = 680 bit

In short

How many bits is 85 bytes?

85 B = 680 bit. 1 byte = 8.000000 bits, so the working is 85 × 8.000000 = 680.

The working

The factor below is an exact definition rather than a measurement, so nothing is approximated in the arithmetic. The only rounding on this page happens where a number is displayed.

1 byte = 8.000000 bits
85 × 8.000000 = 680

How much precision do you need?

Each row is the same answer cut at a different number of decimals, with what that choice costs you. Pick the shortest row whose error is smaller than whatever you are measuring with.

Round trip: take 680 bit back the other way and you land on 85.0000 B — a drift of 0.0000 B. That gap is the rounding, not the conversion.

Frequently asked questions

What is 85 bytes in bits?

85 bytes is 680 bits. 1 byte = 8.000000 bits, so the working is 85 × 8.000000 = 680.

How accurate is 680 bit?

Rounding to 680 bit and converting straight back gives 85.0000 B, a drift of 0.0000 B from the 85 you started with. The factor itself is exact; every bit of that difference comes from the rounding, not the conversion.
