Explain how you would change a measurement in centimeters to kilometers?

Sagot :

A kilometer is equal to 1000 meters and a meter is equal to 100 centimeters, so:

1 km = 100000 cm
1 cm = 0,00001 km

Just multiply or divide it by 100000.

Answer:

Converting a measurement in centimeters to kilometers one needs to know the actual number of 1 kilometer that makes centimeters.
