How to convert gigameters to megaparsecs
1 gigameter is equal to 3.240779289 × 10⁻¹⁴ megaparsecs, and 1 megaparsec is equal to 30,856,775,810,000 gigameters. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
megaparsecs = gigameters × 3.240779289 × 10⁻¹⁴
megaparsecs = gigameters ÷ 30,856,775,810,000Example: convert 1 Gm to Mpc: 1 × 3.240779289 × 10⁻¹⁴ = 3.240779289 × 10⁻¹⁴ Mpc.

About the gigameter
A gigameter is one billion meters. The Moon orbits about 0.38 Gm from Earth, and the Sun's diameter is about 1.39 Gm.
Symbol: Gm · 1 Gm = 1,000,000,000 m · Category: Metric (SI)
About the megaparsec
A megaparsec is one million parsecs (about 3.26 million light-years). It's used for distances between galaxies and in the Hubble constant (km/s/Mpc).
Symbol: Mpc · 1 Mpc = 3.085677581 × 10²² m · Category: Astronomical
