How to convert Gigabyte to Exabit (GB to Eb)
Gigabyte (GB) and Exabit (Eb) measure digital information using different base units. Exabit is based on bits, while Gigabyte is based on bytes. Converting between them requires accounting for the relationship that 1 Byte equals 8 Bits.
Follow these steps to derive the conversion factor and formula.
1. Find the source unit (Gigabyte) value in bits
The Gigabyte is a decimal unit. It is defined as 1000^3 bytes, which equals 1000000000 bytes. Since 1 Byte = 8 bits, multiply the number of Bytes by 8 to express the value in bits.
2. Find the target unit (Exabit) value in bits
The Exabit is a decimal unit. It is defined as 1000^6 bits, which equals 1000000000000000000 bits.
3. Calculate the Conversion Factor
One Gigabyte is equal to 8000000000 bits, while one Exabit equals 1000000000000000000 bits. The conversion factor is obtained by dividing the value of 1 source unit (in bits) by the value of 1 target unit (in bits).
4. Simplify the Fraction
The fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 8,000,000,000, giving the exact conversion factor.
5. Decimal Approximation
The exact factor is 1/125000000. The decimal result is shown to 30 places or fewer when the division terminates earlier.
6. Derive the conversion formula
The conversion factor from Gigabyte (GB) to Exabit (Eb) is 0.000000008. Therefore, any value in Gigabyte can be converted to Exabit by multiplying it by this factor.
7. Conversion Formula
Multiply the number of Gigabytes by 0.000000008 to obtain the equivalent value in Exabits.
