Gibit to Gbit Formula and Manual Conversion Steps
Gibibit and Gigabit are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Gibibit is a binary standard unit where as Gigabit is decimal. One Gibibit is equal to 1024^3 bits. One Gigabit is equal to 1000^3 bits. There are 0.931322574615478515625 Gibibits in one Gigabit. - view the difference between both units
| Source Data Unit | Target Data Unit |
|---|---|
|
Gibibit (Gibit)
Equal to 1024^3 bits
(Binary Unit) |
Gigabit (Gbit)
Equal to 1000^3 bits
(Decimal Unit) |
The formula of converting the Gibibit to Gigabit is represented as follows :
Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Gibibit is Binary where as the target unit Gigabit is Decimal. In such scenario, first we need to convert the source unit to the basic unit - Bit - multiply with 1024^3, and then convert to target unit by dividing with 1000^3 .
Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Gibibit (Gibit) to Gigabit (Gbit). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.
Gigabit = Gibibit x 10243 / 10003
Gigabit = Gibibit x (1024x1024x1024) / (1000x1000x1000)
Gigabit = Gibibit x 1073741824 / 1000000000
Gigabit = Gibibit x 1.073741824
Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 Gibit to Gbit, will be processed as below.
- = 10 x 10243 / 10003
- = 10 x (1024x1024x1024) / (1000x1000x1000)
- = 10 x 1073741824 / 1000000000
- = 10 x 1.073741824
- = 10.73741824
- i.e. 10 Gibit is equal to 10.73741824 Gbit.
(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)
You can use above formula and steps to convert Gibibit to Gigabit using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.
