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 849 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 849 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

849 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 849 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.849 km

The final result is:

849 m → 0.849 km

We conclude that 849 meters is equivalent to 0.849 kilometers:

849 meters = 0.849 kilometers
