To convert milliseconds to minutes, multiply the value by the conversion factor:

1 ms = 0.0000166667 min

For example: 10 ms = 0.000166667 min

The Conversion Formula

To convert milliseconds to minutes, multiply the value by the conversion factor: 1 ms = 0.0000166667 min. For a worked example, suppose you need to convert 25 ms to minutes: 25 × 0.0000166667 = 0.000416667 min. To convert in the opposite direction, divide by 0.0000166667, or equivalently multiply by 60000.

About milliseconds

The millisecond (ms) is the standard unit for measuring short duration events in computing and electronics. It is imperceptible to the human conscious mind, but critical for technology. A 'ping' of 100ms in a video game feels laggy, while 20ms feels instant. milliseconds are commonly used in Ping/Latency in gaming, Camera shutter speeds, Audio synchronization, and Reaction time testing, Computer clock cycles.

A blink of an eye takes 300-400 milliseconds.

About minutes

The minute comes from the Latin 'pars minuta prima', meaning the 'first small part' of an hour. The division of the hour into 60 minutes comes from the Babylonians, who loved the number 60 because it has so many divisors. It is the standard unit for everyday scheduling. minutes are commonly used in Cooking times, Exercise duration, Commute estimation, and Appointment slots, Phone call duration.

It takes about 8 minutes for light from the Sun to reach Earth.

When Would You Convert milliseconds to minutes?

Converting between milliseconds and minutes is one of the most common time conversions. You might need this conversion when working with international specifications, following instructions written for a different measurement system, or comparing values across different standards. Having the conversion factor (1 ms = 0.0000166667 min) memorized or bookmarked can save time in professional and everyday contexts alike.
