Enter the distance and speed into the calculator to determine the time it takes to travel. This calculator can also evaluate any of the variables given the others are known.

Meters To Minutes Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the time it takes to travel a certain distance at a specific speed.

T = D / S

Variables:

  • T is the time it takes to cover the distance (minutes)
  • D is the distance to be covered (meters)
  • S is the speed at which the distance is covered (meters per minute)

To calculate the time it takes to cover a certain distance at a specific speed, divide the distance to be covered by the speed at which the distance is covered. The result will be the time it takes to cover the distance in minutes.

What is Meters To Minutes?

Meters to Minutes is a conversion rate that calculates the amount of time it takes to travel a certain distance at a specific speed. This is commonly used in physical activities such as running or swimming, where the speed is often measured in meters per minute. The conversion rate will vary depending on the speed of the individual or vehicle. For example, if a person is running at a speed of 6 meters per minute, it would take them 10 minutes to cover a distance of 60 meters.

How to Calculate Meters To Minutes?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Meters To Minutes using the formula T = D / S.


  1. First, determine the distance to be covered (D) in meters.
  2. Next, determine the speed at which the distance is covered (S) in meters per minute.
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = T = D / S.
  4. Finally, calculate the time it takes to cover the distance (T) in minutes.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

distance to be covered (D) = 500 meters

speed at which the distance is covered (S) = 50 meters per minute
