Equal to 1000^3 bytes
(Decimal Unit)

The formula of converting the Kibibyte to Gigabyte is represented as follows :

GB = KiB x 1024 / 10003

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

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

  1. STEP 1 → Gigabyte = Kibibyte x 1024 / 10003
  2. STEP 2 → Gigabyte = Kibibyte x 1024 / (1000x1000x1000)
  3. STEP 3 → Gigabyte = Kibibyte x 1024 / 1000000000
  4. STEP 4 → Gigabyte = Kibibyte x 0.000001024

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

  1. = 10 x 1024 / 10003
  2. = 10 x 1024 / (1000x1000x1000)
  3. = 10 x 1024 / 1000000000
  4. = 10 x 0.000001024
  5. = 0.00001024
  6. i.e. 10 KiB is equal to 0.00001024 GB.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

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

Definition : Kibibyte

A Kibibyte (KiB) is a unit of digital information that is equal to 1024 bytes (or 8,192 bits) and is defined by the International Electro technical Commission(IEC). The prefix "kibi" is derived from the binary number system and it is used to distinguish it from the decimal-based "kilobyte" (KB). 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.
