  1. 1 gon = 54 ′
  2. 1 × 54 = 54 ′

How to convert gradians to minutes of arc

1 gon = 54 ′, so multiply by 54 to go from gradians (gons) to minutes of arc. Going the other way, 1 ′ = 0.0185185185185 gon.

′ = gon × 54
gon = ′ × 0.0185185185185

Worked example:

1 gon = 54 ′
5 × 54 = 270 ′

About the units

Gradians (gon)
Gradians (gons), a specialised unit. Involves π, which no fraction equals exactly; this converter uses π to 50 significant digits, far beyond the 12 digits shown. Definition: NIST SP 811 Appendix B.8, factors for units listed alphabetically.
Minutes of Arc (′)
Minutes of arc, a metric unit. Involves π, which no fraction equals exactly; this converter uses π to 50 significant digits, far beyond the 12 digits shown. Definition: BIPM SI Brochure, 9th edition (SI units, prefixes and units accepted for use with the SI).
