Convert mile to pace

Learn how to convert 1 mile to pace step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (m i l e) = x (p a c e)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (m i l e) = 1609.344 (m e t e r) = 1609.344 (m)

Right side: 1.0 (p a c e) = 1.524 (m e t e r) = 1.524 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (m i l e) = x (p a c e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1609.344 \times (m e t e r) = x \times 1.524 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 1609.344 \cdot (m) = x \cdot 1.524 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1609.344 \cdot (m) = x \times 1.524 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

1609.344 = x \times 1.524

Switch sides

x \times 1.524 = 1609.344

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.524})

x \times 1.524 \times \frac{1.0}{1.524} = 1609.344 \times \frac{1.0}{1.524}

Cancel

x \times 1.524 \times \frac{1.0}{1.524} = 1609.344 \times \frac{1.0}{1.524}

Simplify

x = \frac{1609.344}{1.524}

Solve

x

x = 1056 = 1.056 \times 10^{3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (m i l e) = 1.056 \times 10^{3} (p a c e)
