GPa to MPa

Convert gigapascals (GPa) to megapascals (MPa) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.

Gigapascals (GPa)

GPa

Megapascals (MPa)

MPa

1 GPa = 1000 MPa

Full precision:1000 MPa

Step-by-Step Solution

To convert 1 gigapascals to megapascals, we multiply by 1000 because one gigapascal equals exactly 1000 megapascals.

1 gigapascal = 1000 megapascals

Since each gigapascal contains 1000 megapascals, we multiply our value by this factor:

1 × 1000 = 1000 megapascals

So 1 gigapascals = 1000 megapascals.

✓Quick check: 1000 ÷ 1000 = 1 gigapascals

How to Convert Gigapascals to Megapascals

To convert gigapascals to megapascals, multiply the value by 1000.

Megapascals = Gigapascals × 1000

1 gigapascal = 1000 megapascals

Tip: To convert megapascals back to gigapascals, divide by 1000.

Example 1: 1 GPa = 1000 MPa
1 × 1000 = 1000

Example 2: 5 GPa = 5000 MPa
5 × 1000 = 5000

Example 3: 10 GPa = 10000 MPa
10 × 1000 = 10000
