How to Convert Hertz to Gigahertz

To convert hertz to gigahertz, divide the number of hertz by 1,000,000,000. This is because 1 gigahertz is equal to 1,000,000,000 hertz.

Formula

Gigahertz = Hertz ÷ 1,000,000,000

or

GHz = Hz ÷ 1,000,000,000

Step-by-step process

  1. Take the measurement in hertz
  2. Divide that number by 1,000,000,000
  3. The result is the equivalent frequency in gigahertz

Examples

  • 5,000,000,000 Hz = 5,000,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000,000 = 5 GHz
  • 20,000,000,000 Hz = 20,000,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000,000 = 20 GHz
  • 100,000,000,000 Hz = 100,000,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000,000 = 100 GHz
