While these numbers are fairly low, the Zoom support page provides these bandwidth recommendations for 1:1 video calls, as of February 2022.

As you can see, though, my average bandwidth usage was much lower, with 133.74 Kbps up and 171.65 Kbps down. At the peak, I needed only 373.68 Kbps for download and 313.45 Kbps for upload.
