1 pc = 1e-6 Mpc
Full precision:0.000001 Mpc
Step-by-Step Solution

To convert 1 parsecs to megaparsecs, we divide by 1000000 because one megaparsec equals exactly 1000000 parsecs.

1 megaparsec = 1000000 parsecs

Since there are 1000000 parsecs in every megaparsec, we divide our value by this factor:

1 ÷ 1000000 = 1e-6 megaparsecs

So 1 parsecs = 1e-6 megaparsecs.

✓Quick check: 1e-6 × 1000000 = 1 parsecs
↔ Megaparsecs to Parsecs

How to Convert Parsecs to Megaparsecs

To convert parsecs to megaparsecs, divide the value by 1000000.

The Formula

Megaparsecs = Parsecs ÷ 1000000

Key Fact

1 megaparsec = 1000000 parsecs

Tip: To convert megaparsecs back to parsecs, multiply by 1000000.

Example Conversions

Example 1: 1 pc = 1e-6 Mpc
1 ÷ 1000000 = 1e-6
Example 2: 5 pc = 5e-6 Mpc
5 ÷ 1000000 = 5e-6
Example 3: 10 pc = 1e-5 Mpc
10 ÷ 1000000 = 1e-5
