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 265 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 265 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

265 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 265 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.265 km

The final result is:

265 m → 0.265 km

We conclude that 265 meters is equivalent to 0.265 kilometers:

265 meters = 0.265 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 3.7735849056604 × 265 meters.

Approximate result

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

265 m ≅ 0.265 km

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