Now, let's apply the aforementioned formula and explore the manual conversion process from Petabyte (PB) to Zettabyte (ZB). To streamline the calculation further, we can simplify the formula for added convenience.

FORMULA

Zettabytes = Petabytes ÷ 10002

STEP 1

Zettabytes = Petabytes ÷ (1000x1000)

STEP 2

Zettabytes = Petabytes ÷ 1000000

STEP 3

Zettabytes = Petabytes x (1 ÷ 1000000)

STEP 4

Zettabytes = Petabytes x 0.000001
