Real-world reference
A right angle is π/2 radians, about 1.5708 rad. A full circle is 2π radians, about 6.2832 rad. In gradians, that gives you: 1 rad = 63.662 grad, 10 rad = 636.62 grad, 100 rad = 6366.2 grad.
Frequently asked questions
How many gradians are in 1 radian?
1 radian equals 63.662 gradians.
How do I convert radians to gradians?
Multiply the radian value by 63.662. So x rad × 63.662 = the equivalent in grad.
What is 5 radians in gradians?
5 radians equals 318.31 gradians.
What is 10 radians in gradians?
10 radians equals 636.62 gradians.
What is 100 radians in gradians?
100 radians equals 6366.2 gradians.
How do I convert back from gradians to radians?
Multiply the gradian value by 0.015708. For example, 1 grad = 0.015708 rad.
Is the radian bigger than the gradian?
Yes. 1 radian is larger than 1 gradian — specifically 63.662 times larger.
Are these conversion factors exact?
The factor is derived directly from the SI definitions of radian and gradian; the displayed value is rounded for readability, and the browser computes using IEEE 754 double-precision arithmetic.
About the radian and the gradian
The radian
The radian (rad) is the SI unit of angle, defined as the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc equal in length to the radius. One full turn equals exactly 2π radians (≈6.2832 rad). It is the standard unit in mathematics, physics, and engineering calculations.
The gradian
The gradian (grad), also called the gon, divides a full rotation into 400 equal parts, making a right angle exactly 100 gradians. It was introduced with the metric system for surveying and civil engineering, where its decimal relationship to a right angle simplifies calculations.
