# 501 meters in kilometers

## Conversion

501 meters is equivalent to 0.501 kilometers.[1]

## Conversion formula How to convert 501 meters to kilometers?

We know (by definition) that: $1\mathrm{m}=0.001\mathrm{km}$

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

$1 ⁢ m 501 ⁢ m = 0.001 ⁢ km x ⁢ km$

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

$x\mathrm{km}=\frac{501\mathrm{m}}{1\mathrm{m}}*0.001\mathrm{km}\to x\mathrm{km}=0.501\mathrm{km}$

Conclusion: $501 ⁢ m = 0.501 ⁢ km$
