mhz to hertz | Exact Decimal + Formula
One megahertz equals exactly a million hertz. Real-world use: fm radio, computer bus speeds, and older processor clocks. This page expresses those values in hertz, which is used for audio frequencies, processor clock rates, and AC power mains (50/60 hz). Enter any value above — the result updates instantly, and a 1–1000 reference table follows below.
About Megahertz and Hertz
Megahertz (MHz)
A megahertz is 1,000,000 hertz.
Where it's used: FM radio, computer bus speeds, and older processor clocks.
Hertz (Hz)
The hertz measures cycles per second.
Where it's used: Audio frequencies, processor clock rates, and AC power mains (50/60 Hz).

MHz to Hz Formula and Examples
Hz = MHz × 1000000 MHz = Hz × 0.000001 Multiply the value by roughly 1000000 to calculate the equivalent amount in your head.
Common Megahertz to Hertz Calculations
- 5 MHz = 5000000 Hz
- 10 MHz = 10000000 Hz
- 50 MHz = 50000000 Hz
- 100 MHz = 100000000 Hz
- 500 MHz = 500000000 Hz
Precision & Practical Use
For example, 10 MHz = 10000000 Hz — roughly multiple unit increments.
Results are computed to up to 9 decimal places. Round to the precision of your measuring instrument — for most frequency applications, 2–3 significant figures are plenty.
