How to Convert Bits to Gigabits
Joe is the creator of Inch Calculator and has over 20 years of experience in engineering and construction. He holds several degrees and certifications.
To convert a measurement in bits to a measurement in gigabits, divide the data storage by the following conversion ratio: 1,073,741,824 bits/gigabit.
Since one gigabit is equal to 1,073,741,824 bits, you can use this simple formula to convert:
gigabits = bits ÷ 1,073,741,824
The data storage in gigabits is equal to the data storage in bits divided by 1,073,741,824.
Bits and gigabits are both units used to measure data storage. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
What Is a Bit?
A bit, or more formally, a binary digit, is the smallest unit of information stored in digital systems. A bit can hold one of two possible values: one or zero.
Computers represent bits in circuits using a variety of techniques, but the most common way is using changes in voltage to represent the bit's value of one or zero.
Multiples of bits are represented using SI prefixes such as kilo, mega, giga, or tera.
Bits can be abbreviated as b; for example, 1 bit can be written as 1 b.
You can use our binary calculator to convert a number of bits to other number systems such as hex or decimal.

What Is a Gigabit?
In the International System of Quantities, one gigabit is equal to 1,000,000,000 bits, or 109 bits. However, the gigabit is commonly used interchangeably with the gibibit (Gib), which is equal to 1,073,741,824 bits or 230 bits in the binary system.
So, depending on the context, one gigabit is equal to 1,000,000,000 or 1,073,741,824 bits.
Gigabits can be abbreviated as Gb; for example, 1 gigabit can be written as 1 Gb.
