How to use it

  1. Type the value in the gigabits box.
  2. Read the result in gigabytes as you type, and pick the precision you need.
  3. Swap the direction to convert back, or copy the result.

How it is calculated

GB = Gbit × 0.125

Multiply the value in gigabits by 0.125 to get gigabytes.

Example

To convert 25 Gbit to gigabytes: 25 × 0.125 = 3.125 GB.

Questions about this tool

How many gigabytes are in one gigabit?

1 Gbit = 0.125 GB exactly.

How do I convert gigabits to gigabytes?

Use GB = Gbit × 0.125. For example, 25 Gbit = 3.125 GB.

How many gigabits are in one gigabyte?

1 GB = 8 Gbit.

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.
