How to convert degrees to gradians
A full turn is 2π radians, 360 degrees, or 400 gradians. Decimal degrees are not degrees-minutes-seconds notation. Angular minutes and seconds are not time units.
Use x for the value in °, b for the intermediate value in rad, and y for the result in gon.
gon = ° × 0.017453292519943295 ÷ 0.015707963267948967
Worked examples
10 ° ≈ 11.1111111111 gon
Step 1: (10 × 0.0174532925199) ≈ 0.174532925199 rad.
Step 2: 0.174532925199 ÷ 0.0157079632679 ≈ 11.1111111111 gon.20 ° ≈ 22.2222222222 gon
Step 1: (20 × 0.0174532925199) ≈ 0.349065850399 rad.
Step 2: 0.349065850399 ÷ 0.0157079632679 ≈ 22.2222222222 gon.
Results are rounded to 12 significant digits. Converting units does not increase the precision of the original measurement. Very large or small values outside JavaScript’s finite numeric range are rejected.
About Degrees
Degrees (°) measures angle under the conventions above. The base value in rad is (x × 0.0174532925199), where x is the numerical value in °. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
