(Decimal Unit)

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

Mbit = Gibit x 10243 / 10002

Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Gibibit is Binary where as the target unit Megabit 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 1000^2 .

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

FORMULA

Megabit = Gibibit x 10243 / 10002

STEP 1

Megabit = Gibibit x (1024x1024x1024) / (1000x1000)

STEP 2

Megabit = Gibibit x 1073741824 / 1000000

STEP 3

Megabit = Gibibit x 1073.741824

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

  1. = 10 x 10243 / 10002
  2. = 10 x (1024x1024x1024) / (1000x1000)
  3. = 10 x 1073741824 / 1000000
  4. = 10 x 1073.741824
  5. = 10737.41824
  6. i.e. 10 Gibit is equal to 10,737.41824 Mbit.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

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