Quick facts

How to convert gigabytes to bits

  1. Take the value in gigabytes.
  2. Multiply it by 8,589,934,592 (the number of bits in one gigabyte).
  3. Round the result to the precision you need.
bit = GB × 8,589,934,592

Worked example (a phone's storage): 128 GB × 8,589,934,592 = 1099511627776 bit.

To convert bits back to gigabytes, multiply by 0.0000000001, or divide by 8,589,934,592.

What is a gigabyte?

Equal to 1,024 megabytes (2^30 bytes, the binary convention; drive makers use 10^9 bytes, formally written GiB for the binary value). Used for phone storage, RAM, and video files.

What is a bit?

The smallest unit of digital information, a single binary 0 or 1. Used for internet connection and data transfer speeds.

Frequently asked questions
