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 387 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 387 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

387 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 387 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.387 km

The final result is:

387 m → 0.387 km

We conclude that 387 meters is equivalent to 0.387 kilometers:

387 meters = 0.387 kilometers
