To convert a measurement in hours to a measurement in milliseconds, multiply the time by the following conversion ratio: 3,600,000 milliseconds/hour.

Since one hour is equal to 3,600,000 milliseconds, you can use this simple formula to convert:

milliseconds = hours × 3,600,000

The time in milliseconds is equal to the time in hours multiplied by 3,600,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5 hours to milliseconds using the formula above.
milliseconds = (5 hr × 3,600,000) = 18,000,000 ms

How Many Milliseconds Are in an Hour?

There are 3,600,000 milliseconds in an hour, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
