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 740.4 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 740.4 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

740.4 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 740.4 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.7404 km

The final result is:

740.4 m → 0.7404 km

We conclude that 740.4 meters is equivalent to 0.7404 kilometers:

740.4 meters = 0.7404 kilometers
