Question

how much longer is a millisecond than a microsecond?

Answer 1

1000 times... millisecind = .001s, microsecond = .000001s

Answer 2

1 millisecond is 1000 microseconds. This means that a milliseconds duration is 1000 times longer than a microsecond, and therefore 1 millisecond is 999 microseconds longer than 1 microsecond.

Answer 3

oops.. read the question :-)

Answer 4

Hi Stan, I was taking the question literally, but your answer in my opinion is also relevant, since in colloquial terms asking how much longer is a millisecond than a microsecond could warrant the answer 1000 times longer.

Regardless, you provided enough information anyway to answer the question in whatver manner it was meant.
