# 8 centimeters in kilometers

## Conversion

8 centimeters is equivalent to 8e-05 kilometers.[1]

## Conversion formula How to convert 8 centimeters to kilometers?

We know (by definition) that: $1\mathrm{cm}=1e-05\mathrm{km}$

We can set up a proportion to solve for the number of kilometers.

$1 ⁢ cm 8 ⁢ cm = 1e-05 ⁢ km x ⁢ km$

Now, we cross multiply to solve for our unknown $x$:

$x\mathrm{km}=\frac{8\mathrm{cm}}{1\mathrm{cm}}*1e-05\mathrm{km}\to x\mathrm{km}=8e-05\mathrm{km}$

Conclusion: $8 ⁢ cm = 8e-05 ⁢ km$

## Conversion in the opposite direction

The inverse of the conversion factor is that 1 kilometer is equal to 12500 times 8 centimeters.

It can also be expressed as: 8 centimeters is equal to $\frac{1}{\mathrm{12500}}$ kilometers.

## Approximation

An approximate numerical result would be: eight centimeters is about zero kilometers, or alternatively, a kilometer is about twelve thousand, five hundred times eight centimeters.
