Converting the other way: gigabytes to kibibytes
kibibytes = gigabytes × 976,562.5. So 0.001536 gigabytes is back to 1,500 kibibytes; one gigabyte is 976,562.5 kibibytes. See the gigabytes to kibibytes table.
Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.000001: 1,500 × 0.000001 ≈ 0.0015 gb, against the exact 0.001536 gb (2.3% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.
Common mistakes
The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A kibibyte is smaller than a gigabyte, so the number of gigabytes must come out smaller than the number of kibibytes. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
