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 259.8 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 259.8 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

259.8 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 259.8 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.2598 km

The final result is:

259.8 m → 0.2598 km

We conclude that 259.8 meters is equivalent to 0.2598 kilometers:
