Conversion formula

The conversion factor from centimeters to kilometers is 1.0E-5, which means that 1 centimeter is equal to 1.0E-5 kilometers:

1 cm = 1.0E-5 km

To convert 160 centimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 160 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from centimeters to kilometers. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 cm → 1.0E-5 km

160 cm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 160 cm × 1.0E-5 km

L_(km) = 0.0016 km

The final result is:

160 cm → 0.0016 km

We conclude that 160 centimeters is equivalent to 0.0016 kilometers:

160 centimeters = 0.0016 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 625 × 160 centimeters.

Another way is saying that 160 centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 625 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

160 cm ≅ 0.002 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately six hundred twenty-five times one hundred sixty centimeters.
