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 34.2 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 34.2 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

34.2 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 34.2 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.0342 km

The final result is:

34.2 m → 0.0342 km

We conclude that 34.2 meters is equivalent to 0.0342 kilometers:

34.2 meters = 0.0342 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 29.239766081871 × 34.2 meters.

Another way is saying that 34.2 meters is equal to 1 ÷ 29.239766081871 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

34.2 m ≅ 0.034 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately twenty-nine point two four times thirty-four point two meters.
