Kibibit (Kibit) to Gigabit (Gbit) Conversion Formula and Steps

Source Data Unit Target Data Unit
Kibibit
Equal to 1024 bits
(Binary Unit)
Gigabit
Equal to 1000^3 bits
(Decimal Unit)


The formula of converting the Kibibit (Kibit) to Gigabit (Gbit) is represented as follows :

Gbit = Kibit x 1024 ÷ 10003

Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Kibibit (Kibit) to Gigabit (Gbit). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.

FORMULA

Gigabits = Kibibits x 1024 ÷ 10003

STEP 1

Gigabits = Kibibits x 1024 ÷ (1000x1000x1000)

STEP 2

Gigabits = Kibibits x 1024 ÷ 1000000000

STEP 3

Gigabits = Kibibits x 0.000001024

If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 256 Kibibit (Kibit) to Gigabit (Gbit) will be processed as below.

  1. = 256 x 1024 ÷ 10003
  2. = 256 x 1024 ÷ (1000x1000x1000)
  3. = 256 x 1024 ÷ 1000000000
  4. = 256 x 0.000001024
  5. = 0.000262144
  6. i.e. 256 Kibit is equal to 0.000262144 Gbit.

Note : Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.

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

Unit Definitions

Kibibit

A Kibibit (Kib or Kibit) is a binary unit of digital information that is equal to 1024 bits. It is defined by the International Electro technical Commission(IEC) and is used to measure the amount of digital data. The prefix 'kibi' is derived from the binary number system, it is used to distinguish it from the decimal-based 'kilobit' (Kb) and 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.
