Conversion method

Tervilo uses internationally defined relationships for standard physical units. For digital storage, decimal units such as MB and GB are kept separate from binary units such as MiB and GiB. This avoids silently mixing two different measurement conventions.

Why unit labels matter

Some everyday terms are ambiguous across regions. For example, “gallon” can refer to different volume definitions. Tervilo labels the US gallon explicitly in volume conversions so the result can be interpreted correctly.

Accuracy and rounding

The calculator keeps a high-precision intermediate value and formats the displayed result for readability. If you need a result for engineering, laboratory, financial or regulatory work, preserve the unrounded input and verify the required standard and rounding rule for that application.

Browser-side processing
