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 1204 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 1204 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

1204 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1204 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 1.204 km

The final result is:

1204 m → 1.204 km

We conclude that 1204 meters is equivalent to 1.204 kilometers:

1204 meters = 1.204 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 0.83056478405316 × 1204 meters.

Another way is saying that 1204 meters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.83056478405316 kilometers.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one thousand two hundred four meters is approximately one point two zero four kilometers:

1204 m ≅ 1.204 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately zero point eight three one times one thousand two hundred four meters.
