The conversion factor from kilometers to centimeters is 100000, which means that 1 kilometer is equal to 100000 centimeters:
1 km = 100000 cm
To convert 1040 kilometers into centimeters we have to multiply 1040 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from kilometers to centimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 km → 100000 cm
1040 km → L(cm)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in centimeters:
L(cm) = 1040 km × 100000 cm
L(cm) = 104000000 cm
The final result is:
1040 km → 104000000 cm
We conclude that 1040 kilometers is equivalent to 104000000 centimeters:
