How to Convert Meters to Kilometers?

1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters:

1 km = 1000 m

The measure of distance, denoted as ‘d’ in kilometers (km), can be expressed as ‘d’ in meters (m) divided by a thousand:

d_(km) = d_(m) / 1000

Example

In electrical transmission, the efficiency of power distribution is crucial. Let’s consider a scenario where electricity is transmitted over a power line spanning a distance of 5,000 meters. To express this distance in kilometers, we can use the conversion formula:

d_(km) = d_(m) / 1000

Plugging in the values:

d_(km) = 5,000 m / 1,000 = 5 km

So, the electricity is transmitted over a 5-kilometer power line, a common real-world measurement that plays a vital role in ensuring efficient energy distribution.

How Many Meters in a Kilometer?
