To convert a measurement in revolutions to a measurement in mils, multiply the angle by the following conversion ratio: 6,400 mils/revolution. Since one revolution is equal to 6,400 mils, you can use this simple formula to convert: mils = revolutions × 6,400. The angle in mils is equal to the angle in revolutions multiplied by 6,400.

How to Convert Revolutions to Mils
When you want to convert a measurement given in revolutions to mils, follow these steps:
- Understand the Basics: A revolution, or turn, is like making one complete rotation around a circle, which equals 360 degrees. Mils, short for milliradians, are tiny units used to measure angles.
- Know the Conversion Ratio: For this conversion, we use a simple ratio: 1 revolution is equal to 6,400 mils. So, every time you have one complete revolution, it’s like having 6,400 mils.
- Use the Formula: To convert revolutions to mils, multiply the number of revolutions by 6,400. This gives you the equivalent in mils.
- Example Calculation: Let’s say you have 5 revolutions. Plug this into the formula:
Mils = (5 r × 6,400) = 32,000 mils - Understanding the Units: Remember, revolutions measure how many times something spins around in a circle, while mils measure tiny angles. So, converting between them helps us understand angles more precisely.
By following these steps, you can easily convert between revolutions and mils, helping you work with angles more effectively.
