megahertz has the symbol MHz, where M stands for "mega" and Hz for "hertz".

The number given is 11467 kHz, and k stands for kilo.

These prefixes can be rewritten as a power of 10:


\begin{gathered} k=10^3 \\ M=10^6 \end{gathered}

So, we can see that:


\begin{gathered} (k)/(M)=(10^3)/(10^6) \\ (k)/(M)=10^(-3) \\ k=10^(-3)M \end{gathered}

So, we can input that into the place of k:


11467kHz=11467*10^(-3)MHz=11.467MHz

So, 11467 kHz is the same as 11.467 MHz.
