To convert 58 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 58 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

58 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 58 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.058 km

The final result is:

58 m → 0.058 km

We conclude that 58 meters is equivalent to 0.058 kilometers:

58 meters = 0.058 kilometers
