You can convert your bytes value into kb/mb/gb

1 byte = 0.001 KB

1 kb = 0.001 MB

likewise.

In some situations, you might want to divide bytes by 1024 instead of 1000 to get kilobytes, and again by 1024 to get megabytes. – roderick young Aug 20 '16 at 06:08

Well the easiest way is just get the result and divide it by 1024 for K, 1024 again for Meg, and 1024 again for Gig?

So
$bytes = curl_get_file_size( $url );
Then
$kbytes = $bytes / 1024;
$mbytes = $kbytes / 1024;
$gbytes = $mbytes / 1024;
