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 147 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 147 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

147 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 147 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.147 km

The final result is:

147 m → 0.147 km

We conclude that 147 meters is equivalent to 0.147 kilometers:

147 meters = 0.147 kilometers
