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 837 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 837 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

837 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 837 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.837 km

The final result is:

837 m → 0.837 km

We conclude that 837 meters is equivalent to 0.837 kilometers:

837 meters = 0.837 kilometers
