Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters to kilometers is 0.001, which means that 1 meter is equal to 0.001 kilometers:

1 m = 0.001 km

To convert 1173 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 1173 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from meters to kilometers. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m → 0.001 km

1173 m → L_(km)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in kilometers:

L_(km) = 1173 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 1.173 km

The final result is:

1173 m → 1.173 km

We conclude that 1173 meters is equivalent to 1.173 kilometers:

1173 meters = 1.173 kilometers
