Java program converts milliseconds to minutes and seconds

Comprehensive Java Examples

In the above program, you will learn how to convert milliseconds to minutes and seconds in Java.

Example1Convert milliseconds separately to minutes and seconds

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
public class Milliseconds {
　　　　public static void main(String[] args) {
　　　　　　　　long milliseconds =　1000000;
　　　　　　　　//　long minutes = (milliseconds　/　1000)　/　60;
　　　　　　　　long minutes = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMinutes(milliseconds);
　　　　　　　　//　long seconds = (milliseconds　/　1000);
　　　　　　　　long seconds = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(milliseconds);
　　　　　　　　System.out.format("%d milliseconds = %d minutes
", milliseconds, minutes);
　　　　　　　　System.out.println("Or");
　　　　　　　　System.out.format("%d milliseconds = %d seconds", milliseconds, seconds);
　　　　}
}

When running the program, the output is:

1000000 milliseconds =　16　Minutes
Or
1000000 milliseconds =　1000 seconds

In the above program, we use the toMinutes() method to convert the given milliseconds to minutes. Similarly, we use the toSeconds() method to convert it to seconds

We can also use basic mathematics to convert it to minutes and seconds.

Seconds = Milliseconds　/　1000

Minutes are

Minutes = Seconds　/　60
or
Minutes = (Milliseconds　/　1000)　/　60

Example2Convert milliseconds to minutes and seconds

public class Milliseconds {
　　　　public static void main(String[] args) {
　　　　　　　　long milliseconds =　1000000;
　　　　　　　　long minutes = (milliseconds　/　1000)　/　60;
　　　　　　　　long seconds = (milliseconds　/　1000)　%　60;
　　　　　　　　System.out.format("%d milliseconds = %d minutes again %d seconds.", milliseconds, minutes, seconds);
　　　　}
}

When running the program, the output is:

1000000 milliseconds =　16　Minutes again　40 seconds.

In the above program, we use the formula:

Minutes = (Milliseconds　/　1000)　/　60
And
Remaining Seconds = (Milliseconds　/　1000)　%　60

First, we simply divide it by the number of seconds, and then divide60 to calculate minutes (Minutes).

Then, we calculate the remaining seconds (Remaining Seconds), divide it by the number of seconds, and then divide60 get the remaining seconds (Remaining Seconds).
