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 1423 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 1423 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

1423 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1423 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 1.423 km

The final result is:

1423 m → 1.423 km

We conclude that 1423 meters is equivalent to 1.423 kilometers:

1423 meters = 1.423 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 0.70274068868587 × 1423 meters.
