To convert 680 kilometers into meters we have to multiply 680 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

680 km → L_(m)

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

L_(m) = 680 km × 1000 m

L_(m) = 680000 m

The final result is:

680 km → 680000 m

We conclude that 680 kilometers is equivalent to 680000 meters:

680 kilometers = 680000 meters
