Factor1 mg/hr = 1.666667e-5 g/min
Converter
mg/hr
Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7
Result
g/min
Rendered to 6 significant figures.
Formula
Formula
g/min = mg/hr × 1.666667e-5
Multiply any value in milligrams per hour by 1.666667e-5 to obtain the value in grams per minute.
Worked example
Convert 100000 mg/hr to g/min.
- 01Start with 100000 mg/hr.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 100000 × 1.666667e-5 = 1.66667 g/min.
Result100000 mg/hr = 1.66667 g/min

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from mg/hr to g/min?
1 mg/hr equals 1.666667e-5 g/min. To convert, multiply the value in milligrams per hour by 1.666667e-5.
How do I convert 1 mg/hr to g/min?
1 mg/hr = 1.66667e-5 g/min. For any value, multiply by 1.666667e-5.
How do I convert g/min back to mg/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 60000. So 1 g/min = 60000 mg/hr.
When would I need to convert milligram per hour to gram per minute?
Mass flow conversions between mg/hr and g/min are common in material balances, process stream summaries, bulk solids handling, custody transfer, and equipment sizing where kg/hr, t/hr, lb/hr, and lb/s may all appear in different datasheets or vendor documents.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
