Copy Link & Shareb to GiB Formula and Manual Conversion Steps
Bit and Gibibyte are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Bit is one of the very basic digital unit where as Gibibyte is a binary unit. One Gibibyte is equal to 1024^3 bytes. There are 8,589,934,592 Bits in one Gibibyte.
| Source Data Unit | Target Data Unit |
|---|---|
|
Bit (b)
Equal to 0 or 1
(Basic Unit) |
Gibibyte (GiB)
Equal to 1024^3 bytes
(Binary Unit) |
The formula of converting the Bit to Gibibyte is represented as follows :
Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Bit (b) to Gibibyte (GiB). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.
Gibibyte = Bit / (8x10243)
Gibibyte = Bit / (8x1024x1024x1024)
Gibibyte = Bit / 8589934592
Gibibyte = Bit x (1 / 8589934592)
Gibibyte = Bit x 0.000000000116415321826934814453125
If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 8 Bit to GiB, will be processed as below.
- = 8 / (8x10243)
- = 8 / (8x1024x1024x1024)
- = 8 / 8589934592
- = 8 x (1 / 8589934592)
- = 8 x 0.000000000116415321826934814453125
- = 0.000000000931322574615478515625
- i.e. 8 Bit is equal to 0.000000000931322574615478515625 GiB.
(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)
