GiB to kB - Conversion Formula and Steps

Gibibyte and Kilobyte are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Gibibyte is a binary standard unit where as Kilobyte is decimal. One Gibibyte is equal to 1024^3 bytes. One Kilobyte is equal to 1000 bytes. There are 0.000000931322574615478515625 Gibibytes in one Kilobyte. - view comparison between both units

Source Data Unit	Target Data Unit
Gibibyte (GiB) Equal to 1024^3 bytes (Binary Unit)	Kilobyte (kB) Equal to 1000 bytes (Decimal Unit)

Use the below formula to convert from Gibibyte to Kilobyte.

kB = GiB x 1024³ / 1000

Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Gibibyte is Binary where as the target unit Kilobyte is Decimal. In such scenario, first we need to convert the source unit to the basic unit - Byte - multiply with 1024^3, and then convert to target unit by dividing with 1000 .

Follow below steps to convert from Gibibyte (GiB) to Kilobyte (kB).

STEP 1 → Kilobyte = Gibibyte x 1024³ / 1000
STEP 2 → Kilobyte = Gibibyte x (1024x1024x1024) / 1000
STEP 3 → Kilobyte = Gibibyte x 1073741824 / 1000
STEP 4 → Kilobyte = Gibibyte x 1073741.824

Example : Detailed conversion steps from 10 GiB to kB, will look like below.

= 10 x 1024³ / 1000
= 10 x (1024x1024x1024) / 1000
= 10 x 1073741824 / 1000
= 10 x 1073741.824
= 10737418.24
i.e. 10 GiB is equal to 10,737,418.24 kB.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

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

Conversion Units

Definition : Gibibyte

A Gibibyte (GiB) is a unit of digital information that is equal to 1,073,741,824 bytes (or 8,589,934,592 bits) and is defined by the International Electro technical Commission(IEC). The prefix "gibi" is derived from the binary number system and it is used to distinguish it from the decimal-based "gigabyte" (GB). It is widely used in the field of computing as it more accurately represents the amount of data storage and data transfer in computer systems.

Definition : Kilobyte

A Kilobyte (kB) is a unit of digital information that is equal to 1000 bytes (or 8,000 bits) and commonly used to express the size of a file or the amount of memory used by a program. It is also used to express data transfer speeds and in the context of data storage and memory, the binary-based unit of kibibyte (KiB) is used instead.
