Enter the total number of bits and the total time (sec) into the Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Bits Per Time. 

Bits Per Time Formula

BPT = B / T

Variables:

  • BPT is the Bits Per Time (bits/sec)
  • B is the total number of bits
  • T is the total time (sec)

To calculate Bits Per Time, divide the total number of bits by the total time.

How to Calculate Bits Per Time?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Bits Per Time.


  1. First, determine the total number of bits. 
  2. Next, determine the total time (sec). 
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = BPT = B / T.
  4. Finally, calculate the Bits Per Time.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

total number of bits = 30000

total time (sec) = 5
