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 298 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 298 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

298 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 298 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.298 km

The final result is:

298 m → 0.298 km

We conclude that 298 meters is equivalent to 0.298 kilometers:

298 meters = 0.298 kilometers
