The conversion factor from seconds to hours is 0.00027777777777778, which means that 1 second is equal to 0.00027777777777778 hours:

1 s = 0.00027777777777778 hr

To convert 5000 seconds into hours we have to multiply 5000 by the conversion factor in order to get the time amount from seconds to hours. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 s → 0.00027777777777778 hr

5000 s → T_(hr)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the time T in hours:

T_(hr) = 5000 s × 0.00027777777777778 hr

T_(hr) = 1.3888888888889 hr

The final result is:

5000 s → 1.3888888888889 hr

We conclude that 5000 seconds is equivalent to 1.3888888888889 hours:
