Get size and name of selected file in JFileChooser?

Good evening all, I was wondering what syntax I would use to get the size (mb) and the name of the selected file in my JFileChooser.

JFileChooser filedlg = new JFileChooser();
    filedlg.showOpenDialog(null);
    textField.setText(//File's name);
    textField_1.setText(//File's size);

What would I use to replace the comments? All help is appreciated.

   JFileChooser filedlg = new JFileChooser();
    filedlg.showOpenDialog(null);
    File selected = filedlg.getSelectedFile();
    textField.setText(selected.getName());
    textField_1.setText(selected.length());

    String fullName = selected.getAbsolutePath();

Also, the .length() gives size in bytes, so you will have to transform it to whatever you want after.
