In this article I will show you how to convert 173 gigabytes into kilobytes. Throughout the explanation below I might also call it 173 gbytes to kbytes. They are the same thing!
How to Convert Gigabytes to Kilobytes
A gigabyte is greater than a kilobyte. I know that a gbytes is greater than a kbytes 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 173 gigabytes into kilobytes, we use a conversion factor to get the answer.
The conversion factor for gbytes to kbytes is:
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 173 gbytes to kbytes by multiplying 1000000
by the number of gigabytes we have, which is 173.
So, the answer to the question "what is 173 gigabytes in kilobytes?" is 173000000 kbytes.
