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 138.6 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 138.6 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

138.6 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 138.6 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.1386 km

The final result is:

138.6 m → 0.1386 km

We conclude that 138.6 meters is equivalent to 0.1386 kilometers:

138.6 meters = 0.1386 kilometers
