How do you convert 64,000,000 cm to km?

Answer 1

Mila Anderson

#(64,000,000)/(100xx1000) = 640Km#

The metric system's conversion factor for lengths is 10.

The prefixes consist of:

#Km" "Hm" "Dm" "m" "dm" "cm" "mm#

#cm " "rarr" " m " "rarr" " Km# #color(white)(xxxx) div100 color(white)(xxxxx)div1000#

#64,000,000cm " "div 100" " rarr" " 640,000m#

#640,000m " "div1000 rarr 640 Km#

#(64,000,000)/(100xx1000) = 640Km#

To convert 64,000,000 centimeters to kilometers, you divide by 100,000 (since 1 kilometer is equal to 100,000 centimeters).

[ \frac{64,000,000 \text{ cm}}{100,000} = 640 \text{ km} ]

So, 64,000,000 centimeters is equal to 640 kilometers.
