<PRE><B>Question 250475</B>
a gon is a grad is a gradian.


there are 400 gradians to a circle.


there are 360 degrees to a circle.


let g = gon = gradian


let d = degree


your conversion formulas are:


g = d/.9


d = g*.9


if g = 400, then d = 400*.9 = 360 degrees


if d = 360, then g = 360/.9 = 400 gradians


you have g = 60 gradians


d = g*.9 = 60*.9 = 54 degrees


60 gradians goes into 400 (6 and 2/3) times.


54 degrees goes into 360 (6 and 2/3) times.


60 gradians is equivalent to 54 degrees.
