Google's calculator is great for these types of questions:

5 Mbps * 30 days (http://www.google.com/search?q=5+Mbps+*+30+days&sourceid=mozilla-search&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8)

or

5 Mbps * 1 month (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=5+Mbps+*+1+month&btnG=Search)

How long will it take to download a 650 MB iso (linux and given you can use all the bandwidth)?

650 MB / 5 Mbps (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=650+MB+%2F+5+Mbps&btnG=Search)
