Bytes to Gigabytes conversion

Note: Above conversion to GB is base 10 decimal unit. If you want to use base 2 (binary unit) use Bytes to Gibibytes (B to GiB) (which results to 9.3132257461548e-10 GiB). See the difference between decimal (Metric) and binary prefixes

How to convert Bytes to Gigabytes

1 Byte (B) is equal to 1×10^-9 Gigabytes (GB). Conversely, 1 Gigabyte (GB) is equal to 1×10^9 Bytes (B). The prefix Giga refers to decimal (base 10) metric prefix. Sometimes, people use binary (base 2) definitions. Technically, in binary, it should be Gibibyte (GiB) which is 1024^3 or 2^30. In binary (base 2) definition, 1 Byte (B) is equal to 9.31×10^-10 Gibibyte (GiB). Please see the table below for all the conversions from a Byte.

See below section for step by step unit conversion with formulas and explanations. Please refer to the table below for a list of all the Gigabytes to other unit conversions.

Step by step guide to convert bytes to gigabytes

Shorthand (abbreviation) form

1\ B = 10^{-9}\ GB = 0.000000001\ GB

Longhand form

1\ bytes = 10^{-9}\ Gigabytes = 0.000000001\ Gigabytes

Notes: Related but different units $Gigabits$ , $Gibibits$ , $Gigabytes$ and $Gibibytes$ . Please see the conversion table below for $Byte$ to other measurement conversions.

What is a Byte?

Byte is used to measure unit of digital information. In general, byte is equivalent to 8 bits in computers. the symbol for byte is $B$ (capital b) as Specified in IEC, IEEE and Metric Interchange Format.

For more info take a look at Bits and Bytes definition from Stanford

1\,B = 8\,bites

What is a Gigabyte?

Gigabyte, $GB$ , is a unit of digital information. Giga is used as a unit prefix in metrics system. It represent a numerical value $10^9$ or $1,000,000,000$ . List of SI prefix can be found on Wikipidia.

There are two common ways unit of information is represented. One is in decimal (base 10) form and the other is in power of 2 (binary). $Gigabyte$ is referring to the base 10 format, unlike $Gigibyte$ which is referring to base 2 format.

1\,Gigabyte => 1\, GB\,(shorthand form)

1\,GB = 1,000,000,000\,byte = 10^9 bytes

More examples can be found on Stanford's Kilobytes Megabytes Gigabytes Terabytes article
