Question : Convert bytes to megabytes

How can I convert freespace property to megabytes?

My impulse is to do something like this:
$objItem.Freespace = $objItem.Freespace / 1MB
write-host "Free Space: " $objItem.Freespace

but that does not work

Any ideas?

Code Snippet:

1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: 9: 10: 11: 12:

Function ListLogicalDisk { $colItems = get-wmiobject -class "Win32_LogicalDisk" -namespace "root\CIMV2" -computer $args[0] write-Host "Disk Information" foreach ($objItem in $colItems) { write-host "Description: " $objItem.Description write-host "Device ID: " $objItem.DeviceID write-host "Free Space: " $objItem.Freespace write-host "Size: " $objItem.Size write-host "Status: " $objItem.Status write-host } }
