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 462.1 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 462.1 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

462.1 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 462.1 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.4621 km

The final result is:

462.1 m → 0.4621 km

We conclude that 462.1 meters is equivalent to 0.4621 kilometers:
