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

KiB = Gibit x 10242 / 8

Below conversion diagram will help you to visualize the Gibibit to Kibibyte calculation steps in a simplified manner.

  x 1024  
  x 1024  
  ÷ 8  

Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Gibibit (Gibit) to Kibibyte (KiB).

  1. STEP 1 → Kibibyte = Gibibit x 10242 / 8
  2. STEP 2 → Kibibyte = Gibibit x (1024x1024) / 8
  3. STEP 3 → Kibibyte = Gibibit x 1048576 / 8
  4. STEP 4 → Kibibyte = Gibibit x 131072

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

  1. = 10 x 10242 / 8
  2. = 10 x (1024x1024) / 8
  3. = 10 x 1048576 / 8
  4. = 10 x 131072
  5. = 1310720
  6. i.e. 10 Gibit is equal to 1,310,720 KiB.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

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