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 855 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 855 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

855 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 855 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.855 km

The final result is:

855 m → 0.855 km

We conclude that 855 meters is equivalent to 0.855 kilometers:

855 meters = 0.855 kilometers
