GRADIANS = DEGREES × 1.111111

For example, here's how to convert 5 degrees to gradians using

the formula above.5° = (5 × 1.111111) = 5.555556g

Degrees
A degree is a measure of angle equal to 1/360th of a revolution, or circle. The number 360 has 24 divisors, making it a fairly easy number to work with.
There are also 360 days in the Persian calendar year, and many theorize that early astronomers used 1 degree per day.

The degree is an SI accepted unit for angle for use with the metric system. A degree is sometimes also referred to as a degree of arc, arc degree, or arcdegree.
Degrees can be abbreviated as °, and are also sometimes abbreviated as deg. For example, 1 degree can be written as 1° or 1 deg.

Degrees can also be expressed using minutes and seconds as an alternative to using the decimal form. Minutes and seconds are expressed using the prime (′)
and double-prime (″) characters, although a single-quote and double-quote are often used for convenience.

One minute is equal to 1/60th of a degree, and one second is equal to 1/60th of a minute.

Protractors are commonly used to measure angles in degrees. They are semi-circle or full-circle devices with degree markings allowing a user to measure an
angle in degrees. Learn more about how to use a protractor or download a printable protractor.

Gradians
A gradian is equal to 1/400 of a revolution or circle, or 9/10°. The grad, or gon, is more precisely
defined as π/200, or 1.570796 × 10-2 radians.[2]

This unit simplifies the measurements of right angles, as 90° is equal to 100 gradians.
