To convert rems to sieverts, multiply by 0.01.
The calculation uses 1 rem = 0.01 Sv. Results are displayed to at most 10 significant digits. Definitions can be exact while a displayed decimal is rounded. Match the displayed precision to your original measurement.
The formula
rem- Input unit: rems
Sv- Output unit: sieverts
How to use this calculator
- Enter a value in rem.
- Multiply by the stored conversion factor.
- Read the result in Sv; divide by the same factor to convert back.
Worked examples
