In this article I will show you how to convert 1 gigabits into terabytes. Throughout the explanation below I might also call it 1 gbits to tbytes. They are the same thing!
How to Convert Gigabits to Terabytes
A gigabit is smaller than a terabyte. I know that a gbits is smaller than a tbytes because of something called conversion factors.
Put very simply, a conversion factor is a number that can be used to change one set of units to another, by multiplying or dividing it. So when we need to convert 1 gigabits into terabytes, we use a conversion factor to get the answer.
The conversion factor for gbits to tbytes is:
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 1 gbits to tbytes by multiplying 0.000125
by the number of gigabits we have, which is 1.
So, the answer to the question "what is 1 gigabits in terabytes?" is 0.000125 tbytes.
Gigabits to Terabytes Conversion Table
Below is a sample conversion table for gbits to tbytes:
Gigabits (gbits) | Terabytes (tbytes) |

Best Conversion Unit for 1 gbits
Sometimes when you work with conversions from one unit to another, the numbers can get a little confusing. Especially when dealing with really large numbers.
I've also calculated what the best unit of measurement is for 1 gbits.
To determine which unit is best, I decided to define that as being the unit of measurement which is as low as possible, without going below 1. Smaller numbers are more easily understood and can make it easier for you to understand the measurement.
The best unit of measurement I have found for 1 gbits is gigabits and the amount is 1 gbits.
