The formula

Each unit has a fixed value in seconds, so converting goes through the second once:

Conversion
result = value × factor_from ÷ factor_to

Where:

  • value = the number you typed
  • factor_from = the “from” unit’s value in seconds
  • factor_to = the “to” unit’s value in seconds

Worked example
