no, it's 60/bpm

you know bpm means "beats per minute", so the duration of a beat is:

60   (seconds in a minute)
---
bpm  (number of beats in a minute)

at a metronome marking of 60, each beats is a second long (60/60).
the higher the mm, the shorter each beat: for mm=120 each beat is 0.5
seconds (60/120); for lower mm, beats are longer, for mm=40 each beat is
1.5 seconds (60/40)
