About the units
Gradians (gon) — The gradian divides a right angle into 100 — a French Revolutionary decimalisation of the circle (400 gon). European surveyors and some calculators (the mysterious GRAD mode) still use it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I convert large numbers of ° to gon at once?
Yes. The same ratio 1.111111 applies to any value, whether it is a fraction or millions of °.
Is there a shortcut for converting ° to gon?
The shortest route is the formula itself: 1 ° = 1.111111 gon. Memorizing this single line covers every case.
How do ° and gon compare in size?
Compare them through the ratio: 1 ° equals 1.111111 gon, which shows directly which unit represents a larger amount of Angle.
What should I check before trusting a ° to gon result?
Confirm the input value, the unit direction (° to gon, not the reverse), and that the formula 1 ° = 1.111111 gon has been applied.
What is the difference between ° and gon?
Both measure Angle, but they belong to different unit systems or scales, which is why a conversion factor is needed between them.
Why are there different units for Angle?
Different regions and industries developed their own Angle standards over time. International trade and science later required conversion tools to bridge them.
