Conversion formula
The conversion factor from kilometers to centimeters is 100000, which means that 1 kilometer is equal to 100000 centimeters:
1 km = 100000 cm
To convert 240 kilometers into centimeters we have to multiply 240 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from kilometers to centimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 km → 100000 cm
240 km → L(cm)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in centimeters:
L(cm) = 240 km × 100000 cm
L(cm) = 24000000 cm
The final result is:
240 km → 24000000 cm
We conclude that 240 kilometers is equivalent to 24000000 centimeters:
240 kilometers = 24000000 centimeters
