Joule to Kilowatt-hour Conversion Formula

To convert from Joule (J) to Kilowatt-hour (kWh), use the following formula:

 Kilowatt-hour (kWh)\textbf{ Kilowatt-hour} \text{ (kWh)}

=160×60×1000× Joule (J)= \frac{1}{60 \times 60 \times 1000}\times \textbf{ Joule} \text{ (J)}

=2.7777777777777777778×10−7× Joule (J)= 2.7777777777777777778\times 10^{-7}\times \textbf{ Joule} \text{ (J)}

Example

Let's convert 5 Joule (J) to Kilowatt-hour (kWh).

Using the formula:

5×2.7777777777777777778×10−7=0.00000138888888888888888895 \times 2.7777777777777777778\times 10^{-7} = 0.0000013888888888888888889

Therefore, 5 Joule (J) is equal to 0.00000138888888888888888890.0000013888888888888888889 Kilowatt-hour (kWh).
