Conversion formula
How to convert 2 kilometers to meters?
We know (by definition) that: 1 km = 1000 m.
We can set up a proportion to solve for the number of meters.
1 km / 2 km = 1000 m / x m
Now, we cross multiply to solve for our unknown x:
x m = (2 km / 1 km) * 1000 m → x m = 2000 m
Conclusion:
2 km = 2000 m
Conversion in the opposite direction
The inverse of the conversion factor is that 1 meter is equal to 0.0005 times 2 kilometers.
It can also be expressed as: 2 kilometers is equal to 1 / 0.0005 meters.
Approximation
An approximate numerical result would be: two kilometers is about two thousand meters, or alternatively, a meter is about zero times two kilometers.
