How to Convert Gradians to Turns
The gradian and turn are both units of angle. By definition, 1 turn equals exactly 400 gradians. This means to convert gradians to turns, you divide by 400.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 grad to turns:
We need to convert gradians to turns
Since 1 turn = 400 grad, divide by 400
5 ÷ 400 = 0.0125
5 grad = 0.0125 turn

About These Units
Gradian (grad)
A gradian (grad, gon, or grade) is 1/400 of a full rotation, making a right angle exactly 100 gradians. Gradians simplify surveying calculations and are used in some European countries. Also called "metric degrees." A full circle is 400 gradians.
Turn (turn)
A turn (revolution, cycle, or rotation) is one complete 360° rotation. Turns simplify rotational calculations: 0.5 turns = 180°, 0.25 turns = 90°. Used in engineering, dance choreography, and describing rotational motion. Also called "full rotation" or "cycle."
