How to convert milliseconds to seconds?

The formula to convert milliseconds to seconds is: Seconds = Milliseconds / 1000

Here are 3 examples:

  1. 1000 milliseconds = 1000 / 1000 = 1 second
  2. 500 milliseconds = 500 / 1000 = 0.5 seconds
  3. 2000 milliseconds = 2000 / 1000 = 2 seconds

 

What is a Millisecond?

A millisecond is a unit of time equal to one-thousandth of a second. It is a subdivision of the second, which is the base unit of time in the International System of Units (SI). The term "millisecond" comes from the Latin words "mille," meaning thousand, and "secundum," meaning second. The main use of milliseconds is in measuring short time intervals, such as in computer programming, audio and video processing, and scientific research.
