How to Convert Cycles per Second to Megahertz

To convert cycles per second (cps) to megahertz (MHz), divide the number of cycles per second by 1,000,000. This is because 1 megahertz is equal to 1,000,000 hertz, and 1 hertz is equal to 1 cycle per second.

Formula

Megahertz = Cycles per Second ÷ 1,000,000

or

MHz = cps ÷ 1,000,000

Step-by-step process

  1. Take the measurement in cycles per second
  2. Divide that number by 1,000,000
  3. The result is the equivalent frequency in megahertz

Examples

  • 5,000,000 cps = 5,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000 = 5 MHz
  • 20,000,000 cps = 20,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000 = 20 MHz
  • 100,000,000 cps = 100,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000 = 100 MHz
