megaparsec to parsec
Please provide values below to convert megaparsec [Mpc] to parsec [pc], or change ↔.
megaparsec [Mpc]
Definition: A megaparsec is a unit of length equal to one million parsecs.
Historyandorigin: It is used in astronomy to describe extremely large distances.
CurrentUse: It is used in cosmology to measure the distances between galaxies and galaxy clusters.
funfact: The prefix 'mega-' comes from the Greek word 'megas,' meaning 'great.'
parsec [pc]
Definition: A parsec is a unit of length used in astronomy, equal to about 3.26 light years.
Historyandorigin: The term 'parsec' comes from 'parallax of one arcsecond.'
CurrentUse: It is used in astronomy to measure the distances to stars.
funfact: One parsec is approximately 3.26 light years.

How to Convert megaparsec to parsec
1 megaparsec [Mpc] = 1000000 parsec [pc]
1 parsec [pc] = 0.000001 megaparsec [Mpc]
we use cross multiplication method
megaparsec [Mpc] → parsec [pc]
1 → 1000000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1000000=1*x
by simplifying
x=1500000
