kBps to GiBps - Conversion Formula and Steps

Kilobyte and Gibibyte are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Kilobyte is a decimal standard unit where as Gibibyte is binary. One Kilobyte is equal to 1000 bytes. One Gibibyte is equal to 1024^3 bytes. There are 1,073,741.824 Kilobytes in one Gibibyte. - view the difference between both units

(Binary Unit)

The formula of converting the Kilobytes Per Second to Gibibytes Per Second is represented as follows :

GiBps = kBps x 1000 / 10243

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

Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Kilobytes Per Second (kBps) to Gibibytes Per Second (GiBps). This way, we can try to simplify and reduce to an easy to apply formula.

FORMULA

Gibibytes Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 1000 / 10243

STEP 1

Gibibytes Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 1000 / (1024x1024x1024)

STEP 2

Gibibytes Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 1000 / 1073741824

STEP 3

Gibibytes Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 0.000000931322574615478515625

Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 kBps to GiBps, will be processed as below.

  1. = 10 x 1000 / 10243
  2. = 10 x 1000 / (1024x1024x1024)
  3. = 10 x 1000 / 1073741824
  4. = 10 x 0.000000931322574615478515625
  5. = 0.00000931322574615478515625
  6. i.e. 10 kBps is equal to 0.00000931322574615478515625 GiBps.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

You can use above formula and steps to convert Kilobytes Per Second to Gibibytes Per Second using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.

Definition : Kilobyte

A Kilobyte (kB) is a unit of digital information that is equal to 1000 bytes (or 8,000 bits) and commonly used to express the size of a file or the amount of memory used by a program. It is also used to express data transfer speeds and in the context of data storage and memory, the binary-based unit of kibibyte (KiB) is used instead.

Definition : Gibibyte

A Gibibyte (GiB) is a unit of digital information that is equal to 1,073,741,824 bytes (or 8,589,934,592 bits) and is defined by the International Electro technical Commission(IEC). The prefix "gibi" is derived from the binary number system and it is used to distinguish it from the decimal-based "gigabyte" (GB). 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.
