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 162 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 162 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

162 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 162 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.162 km

The final result is:

162 m → 0.162 km

We conclude that 162 meters is equivalent to 0.162 kilometers:

162 meters = 0.162 kilometers
