Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Byte (B) to Gibibyte (GiB).

  1. STEP 1 → Gibibyte = Byte / 10243
  2. STEP 2 → Gibibyte = Byte / (1024x1024x1024)
  3. STEP 3 → Gibibyte = Byte / 1073741824
  4. STEP 4 → Gibibyte = Byte x (1 / 1073741824)
  5. STEP 5 → Gibibyte = Byte x 0.000000000931322574615478515625

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

  1. = 10 / 10243
  2. = 10 / (1024x1024x1024)
  3. = 10 / 1073741824
  4. = 10 x (1 / 1073741824)
  5. = 10 x 0.000000000931322574615478515625
  6. = 0.00000000931322574615478515625
  7. i.e. 10 Byte is equal to 0.00000000931322574615478515625 GiB.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

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