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 221 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 221 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

221 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 221 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.221 km

The final result is:

221 m → 0.221 km

We conclude that 221 meters is equivalent to 0.221 kilometers:

221 meters = 0.221 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 4.5248868778281 × 221 meters.

Approximate result

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

221 m ≅ 0.221 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately four point five two five times two hundred twenty-one meters.
