arcminute to arcsecond Conversion Formula

To convert from arcminute (arcmin) to arcsecond (arcsec), use the following formula:

 arcsecond (arcsec)\textbf{ arcsecond} \text{ (arcsec)}

=160×60×60× arcminute (arcmin)= \frac{1}{60} \times 60 \times 60\times \textbf{ arcminute} \text{ (arcmin)}

=60× arcminute (arcmin)= 60\times \textbf{ arcminute} \text{ (arcmin)}

Example

Let's convert 5 arcminute (arcmin) to arcsecond (arcsec).

Using the formula:

5×60=3005 \times 60 = 300

Therefore, 5 arcminute (arcmin) is equal to 300300 arcsecond (arcsec).
