Convert Revolutions per minute to Inverse minutes (ISO)

Revolutions per minute → Inverse minutes (ISO)
rpm × 1 = min⁻¹ min⁻¹ × 1 = rpm

To convert revolutions per minute (rpm) to inverse minutes (iso) (min⁻¹), multiply the revolutions per minute value by 1. 1 rpm = 1 min⁻¹, and 1 min⁻¹ = 1 rpm. The conversion is a linear scaling with no offset, so the same factor applies to any value.

Going the other way? Convert min⁻¹ to rpm.
