Embark on a seamless conversion journey from grads to mils with our intuitive tool, designed to simplify your calculations and spark curiosity.
A grad, also known as a gon or grade, is a unit of angle measurement that is equivalent to 1/400 of a full circle. In the gradian system, a right angle is defined as 100 grads, making it a convenient unit for surveying and engineering tasks that require precise angle measurements.
Definition of MilA mil, in the context of angular measurement, is a unit that equates to 1/6400 of a full circle. It's predominantly used in military settings for artillery and navigation to provide a refined measure of angles, where precision can be crucial. One mil subtends about 3.6 inches at 100 yards, which helps in estimating distances.
| Grad | Mil |
|---|---|
| 1 grad | 16 mils |
| 2 grads | 32 mils |
| 3 grads | 48 mils |
| 4 grads | 64 mils |
| 5 grads | 80 mils |
| 6 grads | 96 mils |
| 7 grads | 112 mils |
| 8 grads | 128 mils |
| 9 grads | 144 mils |
| 10 grads | 160 mils |
1 grad = 16 mils
1 mil = 0.0625 grads
Example 1:
Convert 5 grads to mils:
5 grads = 5 × 16 mils = 80 mils
Example 2:
Convert 2.5 grads to mils:
2.5 grads = 2.5 × 16 mils = 40 mils
The Grad to Mil Converter has its roots in the need for precision in military and surveying applications. Over time, the gradian system, which simplifies angle calculations, has been paired with the mil system, used for artillery and navigation, leading to the development of conversion tools like ours.
Discover the Grad to Mil Converter, a vital tool for precision in various real-life applications.
Example 1: To convert 10 grads to mils: 10 grads × 16 = 160 mils.
Example 2: To convert 7.5 grads to mils: 7.5 grads × 16 = 120 mils.
