Now, let's apply the aforementioned formula and explore the manual conversion process from Gigabyte (GB) to Petabyte (PB). To streamline the calculation further, we can simplify the formula for added convenience.

FORMULA

Petabytes = Gigabytes ÷ 10002

STEP 1

Petabytes = Gigabytes ÷ (1000x1000)

STEP 2

Petabytes = Gigabytes ÷ 1000000

STEP 3

Petabytes = Gigabytes x (1 ÷ 1000000)

STEP 4

Petabytes = Gigabytes x 0.000001
