Gbit to KiB - Conversion Formula and Steps
Gigabit and Kibibyte are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Gigabit is a decimal standard unit where as Kibibyte is binary. One Gigabit is equal to 1000^3 bits. One Kibibyte is equal to 1024 bytes. There are 0.000008192 Gigabits in one Kibibyte. - view the difference between both units
| Source Data Unit | Target Data Unit |
|---|---|
|
Gigabit (Gbit)
Equal to 1000^3 bits
(Decimal Unit) |
Kibibyte (KiB)
Equal to 1024 bytes
(Binary Unit) |
The formula of converting the Gigabit to Kibibyte is represented as follows :
Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Gigabit is Decimal where as the target unit Kibibyte is Binary. In such scenario, first we need to convert the source unit to the basic unit - Bit - multiply with 1000^3, and then convert to target unit by dividing with 8x1024 .
Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Gigabit (Gbit) to Kibibyte (KiB).
- STEP 1 → Kibibyte = Gigabit x 10003 / (8x1024)
- STEP 2 → Kibibyte = Gigabit x (1000x1000x1000) / (8x1024)
- STEP 3 → Kibibyte = Gigabit x 1000000000 / 8192
- STEP 4 → Kibibyte = Gigabit x 122070.3125
Example : If we apply the above steps, conversion from 10 Gbit to KiB, will be processed as below.
- = 10 x 10003 / (8x1024)
- = 10 x (1000x1000x1000) / (8x1024)
- = 10 x 1000000000 / 8192
- = 10 x 122070.3125
- = 1220703.125
- i.e. 10 Gbit is equal to 1,220,703.125 KiB.
(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)
You can use above formula and steps to convert Gigabit to Kibibyte using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.
