Convert gon to quadrant
Please provide values below to convert gon [gon] to quadrant [None], or Convert quadrant to gon.
1 gon = 0.01 None. To convert gon to quadrant, multiply the value by 0.01; to go the other way, divide by it (1 None = 100 gon). Both units measure angle and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 gon = 0.01 None
- 1 None = 100 gon
- 10 gon = 0.1 None
- 100 gon = 1 None
How to Convert Gon to Quadrant
1 gon = 0.01 None
Example: convert 15 gon to None:
15 gon = 15 × 0.01 None = 0.15 None

Gon
A gon, also known as a grad, is a unit of angular measurement equal to 1/400 of a full circle, used primarily in surveying and engineering.
History/Origin
The gon was introduced in France during the 19th century as part of the metric system to provide a more decimal-friendly division of angles, replacing traditional units like degrees and radians in certain applications.
Current Use
Gons are mainly used in surveying, cartography, and some engineering fields, especially in countries that adopted the metric system, for precise angle measurements and calculations.
Quadrant
A quadrant is one of the four equal parts into which a circle is divided by its diameter, often used to measure angles in degrees from 0° to 90° within each part.
History/Origin
The concept of quadrants originates from ancient geometry and astronomy, where dividing circles into four parts helped in navigation and celestial observations. The term has been used since the 16th century in mathematical and navigational contexts.
Current Use
Today, quadrants are primarily used in mathematics, engineering, and navigation to measure and describe angles, especially in coordinate systems and trigonometry, without a specific unit symbol.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 gon in quadrant?
1 gon (gon) = 0.01 quadrant (None).
How do you convert gon to quadrant?
Multiply the gon value by 0.01. For example, 25 gon × 0.01 = 0.25 None.
What is 10 gon in quadrant?
10 gon = 0.1 None.
Which unit is larger, the gon or the quadrant?
The quadrant is the larger unit: 1 gon equals only 0.01 None.
