How to convert radians to revolutions

1 rad = 0.159154943092 rev, so multiply by 0.159154943092 to go from radians to revolutions (turns). Going the other way, 1 rev = 6.28318530718 rad.

rev = rad × 0.159154943092
rad = rev × 6.28318530718

Worked example:

1 rad = 0.159154943092 rev
5 × 0.159154943092 = 0.795774715459 rev
