Conversion formula

The conversion factor from centimeters to kilometers is 1.0E-5, which means that 1 centimeter is equal to 1.0E-5 kilometers:

1 cm = 1.0E-5 km

To convert 3700 centimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 3700 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from centimeters to kilometers. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 cm → 1.0E-5 km

3700 cm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 3700 cm × 1.0E-5 km

L_(km) = 0.037 km

The final result is:

3700 cm → 0.037 km

We conclude that 3700 centimeters is equivalent to 0.037 kilometers:

3700 centimeters = 0.037 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 27.027027027027 × 3700 centimeters.

Another way is saying that 3700 centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 27.027027027027 kilometers.

Approximate result

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

3700 cm ≅ 0.037 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately twenty-seven point zero two seven times three thousand seven hundred centimeters.
