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 5073 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 5073 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

5073 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 5073 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 5.073 km

The final result is:

5073 m → 5.073 km

We conclude that 5073 meters is equivalent to 5.073 kilometers:

5073 meters = 5.073 kilometers
