How to convert kilohertz to megahertz

To convert kilohertz to megahertz, multiply the number of kilohertz by 0.001.

Formula

MHz = kHz × 0.001

Examples

  • 5 kHz = 5 × 0.001 = 0.005 MHz
  • 25 kHz = 25 × 0.001 = 0.025 MHz
  • 100 kHz = 100 × 0.001 = 0.1 MHz

Frequently asked questions

How many megahertz are in one kilohertz?
One kilohertz is exactly 0.001 megahertz.
How do I convert megahertz to kilohertz?
To convert megahertz to kilohertz, multiply the number of megahertz by 1000. The formula is kHz = MHz × 1000.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units have exact definitions and the factor 0.001 is exact. Displayed results are only rounded when they have many decimal places.
Which is larger, a kilohertz or a megahertz?
A megahertz is 1000 times larger than a kilohertz. In other words, a kilohertz is exactly 1/1000 of a megahertz.
