How to convert gauss to milliteslas
To convert gauss to milliteslas, multiply the number of gauss by 0.1.
Formula
mT = G × 0.1
Examples
- 5 G = 5 × 0.1 = 0.5 mT
- 25 G = 25 × 0.1 = 2.5 mT
- 100 G = 100 × 0.1 = 10 mT

Frequently asked questions
- How many milliteslas are in one gauss?
- One gauss is exactly 0.1 milliteslas.
- How do I convert milliteslas to gauss?
- To convert milliteslas to gauss, multiply the number of milliteslas by 10. The formula is G = mT × 10.
- Is this conversion exact?
- Yes. Both units have exact definitions and the factor 0.1 is exact. Displayed results are only rounded when they have many decimal places.
- Which is larger, a gauss or a millitesla?
- A millitesla is 10 times larger than a gauss. In other words, a gauss is exactly 1/10 of a millitesla.
