Equal to 1024^5 bits
(Binary Unit)

The formula of converting the Petabyte to Pebibit is represented as follows :

Pibit = PB x (8x10005) / 10245

Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Petabyte is Decimal where as the target unit Pebibit is Binary. In such scenario, first we need to convert the source unit to the basic unit - Byte - multiply with 8x1000^5, and then convert to target unit by dividing with 1024^5 .

Now let us apply the above formula and, write down the steps to convert from Petabyte (PB) to Pebibit (Pibit).

  1. STEP 1 → Pebibit = Petabyte x (8x10005) / 10245
  2. STEP 2 → Pebibit = Petabyte x (8x1000x1000x1000x1000x1000) / (1024x1024x1024x1024x1024)
  3. STEP 3 → Pebibit = Petabyte x 8000000000000000 / 1125899906842624
  4. STEP 4 → Pebibit = Petabyte x 7.10542735760100185871124267578125

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

  1. = 10 x (8x10005) / 10245
  2. = 10 x (8x1000x1000x1000x1000x1000) / (1024x1024x1024x1024x1024)
  3. = 10 x 8000000000000000 / 1125899906842624
  4. = 10 x 7.10542735760100185871124267578125
  5. = 71.0542735760100185871124267578125
  6. i.e. 10 PB is equal to 71.0542735760100185871124267578125 Pibit.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

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