Conversion formula

The conversion factor from millimeters to kilometers is 1.0E-6, which means that 1 millimeter is equal to 1.0E-6 kilometers:

1 mm = 1.0E-6 km

To convert 8000 millimeters into kilometers we have to multiply 8000 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from millimeters to kilometers. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 mm → 1.0E-6 km

8000 mm → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 8000 mm × 1.0E-6 km

L_(km) = 0.008 km

The final result is:

8000 mm → 0.008 km

We conclude that 8000 millimeters is equivalent to 0.008 kilometers:

8000 millimeters = 0.008 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 125 × 8000 millimeters.

Another way is saying that 8000 millimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 125 kilometers.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight thousand millimeters is approximately zero point zero zero eight kilometers:

8000 mm ≅ 0.008 km

An alternative is also that one kilometer is approximately one hundred twenty-five times eight thousand millimeters.
