ls -l --block-size M    will give you a long format listing  needed to actually see the file size  and round file sizes up to the nearest MiB  If you want MB  10 6 bytes  rather than MiB  2 20 bytes  units  use --block-size MB instead   Or   ls -lah    -h When used with the -l option  use unit suffixes  Byte  Kilobyte  Megabyte  Gigabyte  Terabyte and Petabyte in order to reduce the number of digits to three or less using base 2 for sizes   man ls   http   unixhelp ed ac uk CGI man-cgi ls
