How to convert physical position to genetic position given 1cM = 1Mb?

Hi all,

Given the set of SNPs with known position as follows, how to apply the assumption of 1cM = 1Mb to get the genetic positions?

chr22   rs5747999   14560203
chr22   rs11089263  14715506
chr22   rs16981741  15272858
chr22   rs175148    15284080

After googling, all I got was just the equation without any further details.

Thanks!

Thanks. However, I specifically want to know how to apply the 1cM = 1Mb, not just how to convert cM to bp in general.

Thanks again! But I am not asking about the command line. I meant how to convert a position, for example 14,560,203 on chr22, into centimorgan. It is certainly not 14,56 cM.
