Convert 1170 bytes/second to gigabits/second
1170 byte/second = 0.00000871718 gigabit/second
Conversion Process
This conversion uses Bit per Second as the base unit. We'll first convert byte/second to Bit per Second, then convert from Bit per Second to gigabit/second.
Step 1: Convert from byte/second to Bit per Second
1170 × 8 = 9360
Result: 9360 Bit per Second
Step 2: Convert from Bit per Second to gigabit/second
9360 × 9.31323e-10 = 0.00000871718
Result: 0.00000871718 gigabit/second
Direct Conversion Factor
1170 ÷ 134217728 = 0.00000871718
Direct conversion: 1170 byte/second = 0.00000871718 gigabit/second
Frequently Asked Questions
How many gigabits/second are in 1170 bytes/second?
There are 0.00000871718 gigabits/second in 1170 bytes/second.
What is 1170 bytes/second in gigabits/second?
1170 bytes/second is equal to 0.00000871718 gigabits/second. To perform this conversion yourself using the convention, multiply 1170 by 7.45058e-9.
How to convert 1170 bytes/second to gigabits/second?
To convert 1170 bytes/second to gigabits/second using the convention, multiply 1170 by 7.45058e-9. This gives you 0.00000871718 gigabits/second.
What is the formula to convert bytes/second to gigabits/second?
The formula to convert from bytes/second to gigabits/second using the convention is: gigabits/second = bytes/second × 7.45058e-9. Using this formula, 1170 bytes/second equals 0.00000871718 gigabits/second.
What is the difference between bytes/second and gigabits/second?
The main difference between bytes/second and gigabits/second is that 1 bytes/second equals 7.45058e-9 gigabits/second using the convention. Note that data storage units commonly use two conventions: the decimal (SI) based on powers of 1000 (kB, MB, GB, etc.) and the binary (IEC) based on powers of 1024 (KiB, MiB, GiB, etc.). This calculator uses the convention.
Is bytes/second bigger than gigabits/second?
gigabit/second is larger than byte/second. Specifically, using the convention, 1 bytes/second equals 7.45058e-9 gigabits/second.
Why is there confusion between KB and KiB, MB and MiB, etc.?
Historically, "kilobyte" (KB) was often used informally to mean 1024 bytes (2^10). However, the SI prefix "kilo" officially means 1000 (10^3). This led to confusion. The IEC introduced binary prefixes like kibibyte (KiB) specifically for 1024 bytes, mebibyte (MiB) for 1024 KiB, etc., to provide clarity. SI prefixes (kB, MB, GB) are now correctly used for powers of 1000, while IEC prefixes (KiB, MiB, GiB) are used for powers of 1024.
What is the difference between bits and bytes?
A bit is the smallest unit of data, representing a binary value of either 0 or 1. A byte is a common unit of digital information that consists of 8 bits. Data storage capacity is typically measured in bytes and their larger multiples.
