About Converting Turns to Gradians
Turn and Gradian are the two standard ways to measure angles — degrees for everyday and navigational use, radians for calculus and physics — so converting between them comes up constantly in math, engineering, and programming. Specifically: One full revolution, and a gradian is 1/400 of a turn.
Formula
gradians = turns × 400
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 turn equals 6.28318530718 base units, and 1 gradian equals 0.0157079632679 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct turn-to-gradian factor of 400.
Simple example
1 turn × 400 = 400 gon
1 turn = 400 gradians.
Real-world example
90 turn × 400 = 36,000 gon
90 turns = 36,000 gradians.
Conversion table
| Turn (turn) | Gradian (gon) |
|---|---|
| 0 turn | 0 gon |
| 30 turn | 12,000 gon |
| 45 turn | 18,000 gon |
| 90 turn | 36,000 gon |
| 180 turn | 72,000 gon |
| 360 turn | 144,000 gon |
Reverse conversion: Gradian to Turn
400 gon × 0.0025 = 1 turn
400 gradians = 1 turns.
turns = gradians × 0.0025

Frequently asked questions
How many gradians are in 1 turn?
1 turn equals 400 gradians, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert turn to gradian?
Multiply the turn value by 400. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert gradian back to turn?
Use the reverse factor: 1 gradian equals 0.0025 turns. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a turn?
Turn (turn) is a unit of angle.
What is a gradian?
Gradian (gon) is a unit of angle.
Is the turn to gradian conversion exact?
Yes. Both turn and gradian are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 400 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
