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 480.4 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 480.4 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

480.4 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 480.4 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.4804 km

The final result is:

480.4 m → 0.4804 km

We conclude that 480.4 meters is equivalent to 0.4804 kilometers:

480.4 meters = 0.4804 kilometers
