To convert a measurement in kiloelectronvolts to a measurement in megaelectronvolts, divide the energy by the following conversion ratio: 1,000 kiloelectronvolts/megaelectronvolt.

Since one megaelectronvolt is equal to 1,000 kiloelectronvolts, you can use this simple formula to convert:

megaelectronvolts = kiloelectronvolts ÷ 1,000

The energy in megaelectronvolts is equal to the energy in kiloelectronvolts divided by 1,000.

For example, here's how to convert 500 kiloelectronvolts to megaelectronvolts using the formula above.
megaelectronvolts = (500 keV ÷ 1,000) = 0.5 MeV

Kiloelectronvolts and megaelectronvolts are both units used to measure energy. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
