Converting from Giga (G) to Kilo (k) | SI prefixes

What is Giga (G)

Giga (G) is a unit in the International System of Units (SI) representing 10^9 (1,000,000,000) of something. It is commonly used in technology and computing to denote large quantities of data storage or data transmission rates.

What is Kilo (k)

Kilo (k) is another unit in the SI system, symbolizing 10^3 (one thousand) of something. Kilo is often used in everyday measurements like kilograms (kg) for weight and kilometers (km) for distance.

Conversion Formulas

The conversions between Giga and Kilo are as follows:

• 1 (G) = 1,000,000 (k)
• 1 (k) = 0.000001 (G)

Examples

1. Converting 10 Giga to Kilo:

10G=10×1,000,000=10,000,000k

2. Converting 16 Kilo to Giga:

16k=16×0.000001=0.000016G

3. Converting 9 Giga to Kilo:

9G=9×1,000,000=9,000,000k

Use these conversion formulas to easily switch between the Giga and Kilo units in your calculations or when working with data that involves large numbers.
