To convert 4212 kilometers into meters we have to multiply 4212 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

4212 km → L_(m)

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

L_(m) = 4212 km × 1000 m

L_(m) = 4212000 m

The final result is:

4212 km → 4212000 m

We conclude that 4212 kilometers is equivalent to 4212000 meters:
