B to PB - Conversion Formula and Steps
Byte and Petabyte are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Byte is one of the very basic digital unit where as Petabyte is a decimal unit. One Byte is equal to 8 bits. One Petabyte is equal to 1000^5 bytes. There are 1,000,000,000,000,000 Bytes in one Petabyte. - view the difference between both units

(Basic Unit) |
Petabyte (PB)
Equal to 1000^5 bytes
(Decimal Unit) |
The formula of converting the Byte to Petabyte is represented as follows :
Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Byte (B) to Petabyte (PB). This way, we can try to simplify and reduce to an easy to apply formula.
Petabyte = Byte / 10005
Petabyte = Byte / (1000x1000x1000x1000x1000)
Petabyte = Byte / 1000000000000000
Petabyte = Byte x (1 / 1000000000000000)
Petabyte = Byte x 0.000000000000001
Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 Byte to PB, will be processed as below.
- = 10 / 10005
- = 10 / (1000x1000x1000x1000x1000)
- = 10 / 1000000000000000
- = 10 x (1 / 1000000000000000)
- = 10 x 0.000000000000001
- = 0.00000000000001
- i.e. 10 Byte is equal to 0.00000000000001 PB.
(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)
You can use above formula and steps to convert Byte to Petabyte using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.
