How to Convert Megohms to Ohms
The megohm and ohm are both units of electrical resistance. By definition, 1 megohm equals exactly 1000000 ohms. This means to convert megohms to ohms, you multiply by 1000000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 MΩ to ohms:
We need to convert megohms to ohms
Since 1 MΩ = 1000000 Ω, multiply by 1000000
5 × 1000000 = 5000000
5 MΩ = 5000000 Ω

About These Units
Megohm (MΩ)
A megohm (MΩ) equals 1,000,000 ohms or 1,000 kilohms. Used for insulation resistance testing (should be >1 MΩ), high-impedance circuits, input resistance of oscilloscopes (1-10 MΩ), and anti-static resistors.
Ohm (Ω)
The ohm (Ω) is the SI unit of electrical resistance. Named after Georg Simon Ohm. Defined by Ohm's Law: R = V/I (resistance = voltage ÷ current). Common resistor values: 10Ω to 10MΩ. Human body resistance: 1,000-100,000Ω depending on conditions.
