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 23 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 23 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

23 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 23 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.023 km

The final result is:

23 m → 0.023 km

We conclude that 23 meters is equivalent to 0.023 kilometers:

23 meters = 0.023 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 43.478260869565 × 23 meters.

Another way is saying that 23 meters is equal to 1 ÷ 43.478260869565 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

23 m ≅ 0.023 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately forty-three point four seven eight times twenty-three meters.
