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 970.2 meters into kilometers we have to multiply 970.2 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

970.2 m → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 970.2 m × 0.001 km

L_(km) = 0.9702 km

The final result is:

970.2 m → 0.9702 km

We conclude that 970.2 meters is equivalent to 0.9702 kilometers:

970.2 meters = 0.9702 kilometers
