Conversion formula

The conversion factor from seconds to minutes is 0.016666666666667, which means that 1 second is equal to 0.016666666666667 minutes:

1 s = 0.016666666666667 min

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

1 s → 0.016666666666667 min

5000 s → T_(min)

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

T_(min) = 5000 s × 0.016666666666667 min

T_(min) = 83.333333333333 min

The final result is:

5000 s → 83.333333333333 min

We conclude that 5000 seconds is equivalent to 83.333333333333 minutes:
