Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (bit per second (bps)) without arbitrary rounding:

V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)

Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)

1. Source SI Bridge (k_source):1 gigabyte/second = 8.589935 × 10⁹ bit per second (bps)

2. Target SI Bridge (k_target):1 megabit/second (SI def.) = 1000000 bit per second (bps)

Step-by-step substitution for Gigabyte Per Second → Megabit Per Second Si Def:V(megabit/second (SI def.)) = V(gigabyte/second) × ( 8.589935 × 10⁹ / 1000000 ) = V(gigabyte/second) × 8589.934592
