Audiobook Speed Calculator – Calculate Listening Time Efficiently

Use this audiobook speed calculator to find out how long it will take you to finish your audiobook at different listening speeds.

How the Audiobook Speed Calculator Works

This calculator helps you to find out how long it will take to listen to your audiobook at different speeds. By entering the original duration of the audiobook and the playback speed multiplier (e.g., 1.5 for 1.5 times the speed), you can calculate the new duration.

How to Use It

  1. Enter the original duration of the audiobook in hours into the first field.
  2. Enter the playback speed multiplier into the second field. This number should reflect how many times faster than normal (1x) you plan to listen. For instance, 1.5 for 1.5x speed, or 2 for double speed.
  3. Click the ‘Calculate’ button to get the result.
  4. The result will display in the ‘Result’ field, showing the new audiobook duration in hours.

How It Calculates Results

The calculator takes the original duration of the audiobook and divides it by the playback speed multiplier. For example, if an audiobook is 10 hours long and you listen at 2x speed, the new duration will be 5 hours.

Limitations

This calculator assumes that you listen to the audiobook without any breaks and that the playback speed remains constant throughout the entire audiobook. It can only give an estimated duration and does not account for variations in listening habits or potential differences in playback speed implementation across different audiobook players.
