Kilohertz to Megahertz

The kilohertz is a decimal multiple unit of the SI derived unit of frequency hertz which is equal to 1000 Hz. The symbol for kilohertz is kHz. The megahertz is a decimal multiple unit of the SI derived unit of frequency hertz which is equal to 10⁶ Hz. The symbol for megahertz is MHz. To convert a kilohertz measurement to a megahertz measurement, divide the frequency by the conversion ratio.

Since one megahertz is equal to 1,000 kilohertz, you can use this simple formula to convert:

megahertz = kilohertz ÷ 1,000

The frequency in megahertz is equal to the kilohertz divided by 1,000.

For example

here's how to convert 5,000 kilohertz to megahertz using the formula above.

5,000 kHZ = (5,000 ÷ 1,000) = 5 MHz

Kilohertz and megahertz are both units used to measure frequency. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

Kilohertz

Kilohertz is a measure of frequency equal to one thousand cycles per second.

The kilohertz is a multiple of the hertz, which is the SI derived unit for frequency. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for 10³. Kilohertz can be abbreviated as kHZ; for example, 1 kilohertz can be written as 1 kHZ.

Megahertz

Megahertz is a measure of frequency equal to one million cycles per second.

The megahertz is a multiple of the hertz, which is the SI derived unit for frequency. In the metric system, "mega" is the prefix for 10⁶. Megahertz can be abbreviated as MHz; for example, 1 megahertz can be written as 1 MHz.
