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 248 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 248 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

248 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 248 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.248 km

The final result is:

248 m → 0.248 km

We conclude that 248 meters is equivalent to 0.248 kilometers:

248 meters = 0.248 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 4.0322580645161 × 248 meters.

Approximate result

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

248 m ≅ 0.248 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately four point zero three two times two hundred forty-eight meters.
