Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Kibibyte (KiB) to Gibibyte (GiB).

  1. STEP 1 → Gibibyte = Kibibyte / 10242
  2. STEP 2 → Gibibyte = Kibibyte / (1024x1024)
  3. STEP 3 → Gibibyte = Kibibyte / 1048576
  4. STEP 4 → Gibibyte = Kibibyte x (1 / 1048576)
  5. STEP 5 → Gibibyte = Kibibyte x 0.00000095367431640625

Example : If we apply the above steps, conversion from 10 KiB to GiB, will be processed as below.

  1. = 10 / 10242
  2. = 10 / (1024x1024)
  3. = 10 / 1048576
  4. = 10 x (1 / 1048576)
  5. = 10 x 0.00000095367431640625
  6. = 0.0000095367431640625
  7. i.e. 10 KiB is equal to 0.0000095367431640625 GiB.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

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