Convert Revolutions to Gradians (rev to gon)
1 revolution (rev) = 400 gradians (gon). 1 gon = 0.0025 rev. Example: 15 rev = 15 × 400 = 6000 gon.

How to Convert Revolution to Gradian
- 1 rev = 400 gon
- 1 gon = 0.0025 rev
- Example: convert 15 rev to gon: 15 rev = 15 × 400 gon = 6000 gon
Formula
gon = rev × 400
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 revolution = 2π rad = 360°.
- 1 gon = π/200 rad; a right angle is 100 gon and a full turn 400 gon.
- 1 rev = 6.28318530718 rad ÷ 0.01570796326795 rad per gon = 400 gon
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Revolution definition: revolution; Gradian definition: gradian.
Worked examples
- A reading of 1 rev converts to 400 gon.
1 rev × 400 = 400 gon - A value of 3 rev is 1200 gon.
3 rev × 400 = 1200 gon

Where it's used
Revolutions are used for rotating machinery (rpm), while gradians appear in land surveying in Europe. Both measure plane angle, so the conversion is a fixed factor.

Frequently asked questions
How many gradians are in 1 revolution?
1 rev = 400 gon.
How do I convert revolutions to gradians?
Multiply the value in rev by 400. For example, 15 rev × 400 = 6000 gon.
Is the rev to gon conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly, so the ratio is exact; its decimal form does not terminate and is shown here to 10 significant figures (more with the precision selector).
