How to use it
- Type the value in the bits box.
- Read the result in gigabytes as you type, and pick the precision you need.
- Swap the direction to convert back, or copy the result.
How it is calculated
GB = bit × 1.25e-10
Multiply the value in bits by 1.25e-10 to get gigabytes.
Example
To convert 25 bit to gigabytes: 25 × 1.25e-10 = 3.125e-9 GB.

About the units
- Bit
- The smallest unit of digital information, holding one of two values, 0 or 1. Eight bits make exactly one byte.
- Gigabyte
- A decimal unit equal to exactly 10^9 bytes, the unit used by drive makers and mobile data plans.
Limits and caveats
- Results are rounded for display and computed with the browser's floating point precision (about 15 significant digits).
- Both unit factors are exact by their official definitions.
Questions about this tool
How many gigabytes are in one bit?
1 bit = 1.25e-10 GB exactly.
How do I convert bits to gigabytes?
Use GB = bit × 1.25e-10. For example, 25 bit = 3.125e-9 GB.
How many bits are in one gigabyte?
1 GB = 8,000,000,000 bit.
Why does a 1 TB drive show about 931 GB on my computer?
Drive makers count 1 TB as 10^12 bytes, while Windows divides by 2^30 and labels the result GB even though it is really GiB. So 10^12 ÷ 1,073,741,824 gives about 931.32, and no space is missing.
What is the difference between a kilobyte and a kibibyte?
A kilobyte (kB) is a decimal unit of 1000 bytes and a kibibyte (KiB) is a binary unit of 1024 bytes. The same split applies to mega and mebi, giga and gibi, and the gap grows at each step.
