To convert a measurement in nanoseconds to a measurement in centuries, divide the time by the following conversion ratio: 3.1557E+18 nanoseconds/century.

Since one century is equal to 3.1557E+18 nanoseconds, you can use this simple formula to convert:

centuries = nanoseconds ÷ 3.1557E+18

The time in centuries is equal to the time in nanoseconds divided by 3.1557E+18.

For example, here's how to convert 5.0E+18 nanoseconds to centuries using the formula above.
centuries = (5.0E+18 ns ÷ 3.1557E+18) = 1.584437 c

Nanoseconds and centuries are both units used to measure time. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What is a Nanosecond?

One nanosecond is equal to 1/1,000,000,000 (one-billionth) of a second.

The nanosecond is a multiple of the second, which is the SI base unit for time. In the metric system, "nano" is the prefix for billionths, or 10-9. Nanoseconds can be abbreviated as ns; for example, 1 nanosecond can be written as 1 ns.

What is a Century?

The century is a time period of 100 years. The word century is derived from the Latin word centum, meaning hundred.[1]

Centuries can be abbreviated as c; for example, 1 century can be written as 1 c.
