In practice
Kilohertz to megahertz divides by 1,000. It is used in radio and electronics, where AM radio sits in kilohertz (530 to 1,700 kHz), FM radio in megahertz (88 to 108 MHz) and Wi-Fi in gigahertz. For example, 1,000 kHz is 1 MHz and 99,500 kHz is 99.5 MHz. Radio dials and station listings switch units at about a megahertz, so a figure like 1,010 kHz is an AM station while 101.0 MHz is FM.
How to convert kilohertz to megahertz
Multiply the value by 0.001.
MHz = kHz × 0.001Example: 10 kHz = 0.01 MHz.

Frequently asked questions
How many megahertz is 1 kilohertz?
1 kilohertz equals 0.001 megahertz.
What is the formula to convert kHz to MHz?
To convert kHz to MHz, multiply the value by 0.001. The full formula is: MHz = kHz × 0.001.
How do I convert megahertz back to kilohertz?
Use the same calculator above and type your value into the megahertz field instead — it converts in both directions. Or use the reverse formula: kHz = MHz ÷ 0.001.
Is the kHz to MHz conversion exact?
The conversion factor used here (0.001) is the standard internationally defined value. Results on this page are rounded to four decimal places for readability.
