Gigajoule to Joule Conversion Formula

To convert from Gigajoule (GJ) to Joule (J), use the following formula:

 Joule (J)\textbf{ Joule} \text{ (J)}

=109× Gigajoule (GJ)= 10^{9}\times \textbf{ Gigajoule} \text{ (GJ)}

Example

Let's convert 5 Gigajoule (GJ) to Joule (J).

Using the formula:

5×109=50000000005 \times 10^{9} = 5000000000

Therefore, 5 Gigajoule (GJ) is equal to 50000000005000000000 Joule (J).
