Conversion formula

The conversion factor from kilometers to meters is 1000, which means that 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters:

1 km = 1000 m

To convert 300 kilometers into meters we have to multiply 300 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from kilometers to meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 km → 1000 m

300 km → L_(m)

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

L_(m) = 300 km × 1000 m

L_(m) = 300000 m

The final result is:

300 km → 300000 m

We conclude that 300 kilometers is equivalent to 300000 meters:

300 kilometers = 300000 meters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter is equal to 3.3333333333333E-6 × 300 kilometers.

Another way is saying that 300 kilometers is equal to 1 ÷ 3.3333333333333E-6 meters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred kilometers is approximately three hundred thousand meters:

300 km ≅ 300000 m

An alternative is also that one meter is approximately zero times three hundred kilometers.
