How to Convert Cycles per Second to Hertz
To convert cycles per second to hertz, divide the frequency by the following conversion ratio: 1 cycles per second/hertz.
Since one hertz is equal to 1 cycle per second, you can use this simple formula to convert:
hertz = cycles per second ÷ 1
The frequency in hertz is equal to the frequency in cycles per second divided by 1.
For example, here's how to convert 5 cycles per second to hertz using the formula above.
hertz = (5 cps ÷ 1) = 5 Hz
How Many Hertz Are in One Cycle per Second?
There are 1 hertz in one cycle per second, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 cps = 1 Hz
Cycles per second and hertz are both units used to measure frequency. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.
What Are Cycles per Second?
Cycles per second are a measure of the number of oscillations, or cycles, that occur per second.
Cycles per second can be abbreviated as cps, and are also sometimes abbreviated as c/s or cycles/second. For example, 1 cycle per second can be written as 1 cps, 1 c/s, or 1 cycles/second.
Cycles per second can be expressed using the formula: cps = Cycles / Times

What Is a Hertz?
One hertz is formally defined as the frequency of one cycle per second.[1]
The hertz is the SI derived unit for frequency in the metric system. Hertz can be abbreviated as Hz; for example, 1 hertz can be written as 1 Hz.
Frequency in hertz can be expressed using the formula:
Hz = Cycles / Time in Seconds
