Converting the other way: gigabytes to kilobytes

kilobytes = gigabytes × 1,000,000. So 0.000017 gigabytes is back to 17 kilobytes; one gigabyte is 1,000,000 kilobytes. See the gigabytes to kilobytes table.

Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.000001: 17 × 0.000001 ≈ 0.000017 gb, against the exact 0.000017 gb (0.0% 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 kilobyte is smaller than a gigabyte, so the number of gigabytes must come out smaller than the number of kilobytes. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
