Java Program to Convert Milliseconds to Minutes and Seconds

Convert Milliseconds to Minutes and Seconds

In this Program, you’ll learn to convert milliseconds to Milliseconds to Minutes and Seconds individually, and together in Java.

A minute is a unit of time which has 60 seconds and it is measurement unit, we’ll learn to convert Milliseconds to Minutes and also Minutes to Seconds, so to understand this example, you should have knowledge of  Java Program.

1 Minute = 60000 Milliseconds
1 Minute = 60 Seconds

Program to Convert milliseconds to minutes and seconds individually

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

public class Milliseconds {

public static void main(String[] args) {
long milliseconds = 1000000;

// long minutes = (milliseconds / 1000) / 60;
long minutes = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMinutes(milliseconds);

// long seconds = (milliseconds / 1000);
long seconds = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(milliseconds);

System.out.format("%d Milliseconds = %d minutes\n", milliseconds, minutes );
System.out.println("Or");
System.out.format("%d Milliseconds = %d seconds", milliseconds, seconds );

}
}

When you run the program, the output will be:

1000000 Milliseconds = 16 minutes
Or
1000000 Milliseconds = 1000 seconds

In the above program, we’ve converted given milliseconds to minutes using toMinutes()method. Likewise, we used toSeconds() method to convert it to seconds.

We can also use basic math to convert it to minutes and seconds.

Seconds = Milliseconds / 1000

while minutes is

Minutes = Seconds / 60
or
Minutes = (Milliseconds / 1000) / 60

Program to Convert Milliseconds to Minutes & Seconds

public class Milliseconds {

public static void main(String[] args) {
long milliseconds = 1000000;

long minutes = (milliseconds / 1000) / 60;
long seconds = (milliseconds / 1000) % 60;

System.out.format("%d Milliseconds = %d minutes and %d seconds.", milliseconds, minutes, seconds);

}
}

When you run the program, the output will be:

1000000 Milliseconds = 16 minutes and 40 seconds.

In the above program, we’ve used the formula:

Minutes = (Milliseconds / 1000) / 60 And Remaining Seconds = (Milliseconds / 1000) % 60

First, we calculate the minutes by simply dividing it into seconds and then to minutes by dividing it with 60.

Then, we calculate the remaining seconds by dividing it to seconds and getting the remainder when divided by 60. So convert milliseconds to seconds is one of the examples of Java Program.
