How many MB is 40 megabits?

Answer:There are 8-bits in One byte. 40/8=5. However this actually translates to 4.77MiB(mega-bytes)40 mega-bits does NOT equal 5 Mega-Bytes! However it DOES now equal 5'Mb'.Here's why:1024 Bytes to each Kilo-Byte, 1024 Kilo-Bytes in each Mega-Byte, 1024 Megas in each Giga and so on to Terra, exa, peta.....Thus you must divide that 5 million bytes by 1024 a few times to get the relevant value.REASON FOR CONFUSION:This confusion has arisen from Hard Drive manufactures in the early 2Ks. They would cut corners to make more profit by mis-representation.Which is why IEEE was forced to change the Standards to say MiB, GiB, etc instead of the classic KB, MB, GB etcEXAMPLE:Say you have a 40GB drive...It's not actually 40 Giga-bytes; it's 40.0 Billion bytes. Which translates to ~37.25 Gigs.Thus the drive was slightly cheaper to manufacture and the un-aware consumer purchased it all the same. It still happens to this day. Just read through customer reviews on any website which sells Hard-Drives"The More you Know" :)-Glytch

How many Bytes to physical space is equivalent?

The question makes no sense. What do you mean "physical space"? The most straightforward interpretation is that you want to know how big a one-byte storage device would be, and the answer to that is that it depends on what the storage device is (in a complicated way, so don't bother specifying "a hard drive" like that's going to help).
