(Binary Unit)

The formula of converting the Byte to Gibibit is represented as follows :

Gibit = Byte x 8 / 10243

Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Byte (B) to Gibibit (Gibit). This way, we can try to simplify and reduce to an easy to apply formula.

FORMULA

Gibibit = Byte x 8 / 10243

STEP 1

Gibibit = Byte x 8 / (1024x1024x1024)

STEP 2

Gibibit = Byte x 8 / 1073741824

STEP 3

Gibibit = Byte x 0.000000007450580596923828125

Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 Byte to Gibit, will be processed as below.

  1. = 10 x 8 / 10243
  2. = 10 x 8 / (1024x1024x1024)
  3. = 10 x 8 / 1073741824
  4. = 10 x 0.000000007450580596923828125
  5. = 0.00000007450580596923828125
  6. i.e. 10 Byte is equal to 0.00000007450580596923828125 Gibit.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

You can use above formula and steps to convert Byte to Gibibit using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.
