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 85 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 85 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

85 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 85 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.085 km

The final result is:

85 m → 0.085 km

We conclude that 85 meters is equivalent to 0.085 kilometers:

85 meters = 0.085 kilometers

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer is equal to 11.764705882353 × 85 meters.
