How to perform key conversions involving length measurements
The formulas for conversion are represented below:
Kilometers to Meters Formula
m = km x 1000
Example: 30 kilometers in meters:
m = km x 1000
m = 30 x 1000
m = 30000
Meters to Kilometers Formula
km = m / 1000
Example: 1500 meters in kilometers:
km = m / 1000
km = 1500 / 1000
km = 1,5
Frequently asked questions involving length and distance
1.5 km in meters
Considering that 1 kilometer is equivalent to 1000 meters, you can use a rule of three to get that 1.5 km equals 1500 meters.
1 km - 1000 m
1,5 km - x
Apply the rule of three and get:
x km = 1500km2
x = 1500 m
100 meters equals how many kilometers?
If every 1000 meters we have 1 kilometer, just divide the number of meters (100) by 1000, so you will get that 100 m equals 0.1 km. Observe the calculation below:
km = m / 1000
Km = 100 / 1000
km = 0,1
