How to Convert Hertz to Kilohertz
1 hertz = 0.001 kilohertz
Kilohertz = Hertz × 0.001
Example: 48000 Hz × 0.001 = 48 kHz
Reverse Conversion
To convert kilohertz back to hertz:
- Remember, 1 kilohertz equals 1000 hertz.
- To convert 48 kHz to Hz, multiply
48 x 1000, resulting in48000 Hz.
48,000 Hz equals 48 kHz — the standard sampling rate for professional audio and video production (DVD, Blu-ray, broadcast). Slightly higher fidelity than CD.
48000 Hz is also equal to:
- 0.048 megahertz
- 2880000 revolution per minute
About these units
Hertz: SI unit of frequency; one cycle (or event) per second. Symbol: Hz = s⁻¹
Kilohertz: SI decimal multiple of hertz; 1 kHz = 1,000 Hz = 10³ Hz
