5 mW = 5e-12 GW
Full precision:5e-12 GW
Step-by-Step Solution

To convert 5 milliwatts to gigawatts, we divide by 1e+12 because one gigawatt equals exactly 1e+12 milliwatts.

1 gigawatt = 1e+12 milliwatts

Since there are 1e+12 milliwatts in every gigawatt, we divide our value by this factor:

5 ÷ 1e+12 = 5e-12 gigawatts

So 5 milliwatts = 5e-12 gigawatts.

Quick check: 5e-12 × 1e+12 = 5 milliwatts
