Conversion Method and Formulas
To convert KB (Kilobytes) to GB (Gigabytes), you need to consider whether you’re using the decimal (SI) system or the binary system:
Decimal (SI) System:
In the decimal system, 1 KB = 1,000 bytes and 1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes.
Formula: GB = KB ÷ 1,000,000
Binary System:
In the binary system, 1 KB = 1,024 bytes and 1 GB = 1,073,741,824 bytes.
Formula: GB = KB ÷ 1,048,576
To perform the conversion:
- Determine which system you’re using (decimal or binary).
- Divide the number of KB by the appropriate factor (1,000,000 for decimal or 1,048,576 for binary).
- The result is the equivalent number of GB.
Example: Convert 5,000,000 KB to GB (decimal system)
5,000,000 KB ÷ 1,000,000 = 5 GB
Example: Convert 5,000,000 KB to GB (binary system)
5,000,000 KB ÷ 1,048,576 ≈ 4.76837158203125 GB
Remember that the choice between decimal and binary systems can lead to different results, especially when dealing with larger values. It’s important to specify which system you’re using to avoid confusion.
