Both meters(m) and kilometer(km) are metric units of measurements.
A kilometer is used to measure longer distances compared to meters.
Formula to convert km to m.
To convert a km to m we multiply the km by the conversion rate which is 1000.
The 1000 is derived from the relationship between a km a m which states that 1 km is equivalent 1000m.
Length in m = Length in km x 1000
Example:
Convert 2.5 km to m.
= 2.5 x 1000
= 2,500m
