Examples
1
Consider that a high-end electric car has a maximum range of 400 kilometers on a single charge. Convert this range from kilometers to Hectameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in kilometers is:
Length(Kilometers) = 400
Formula:
The formula to convert length from kilometers to hectameters is:
Length(Hectameters) = Length(Kilometers) × 10
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Kilometers) = 400 in the above formula.
Length(Hectameters) = 400 × 10
Length(Hectameters) = 4000
Final Answer:
Therefore, 400 km is equal to 4000 hm.
The length is 4000 hm, in hectameters.
2
Consider that a private helicopter has a flight range of 150 kilometers. Convert this range from kilometers to Hectameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in kilometers is:
Length(Kilometers) = 150
Formula:
The formula to convert length from kilometers to hectameters is:
Length(Hectameters) = Length(Kilometers) × 10
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Kilometers) = 150 in the above formula.
Length(Hectameters) = 150 × 10
Length(Hectameters) = 1500
Final Answer:
Therefore, 150 km is equal to 1500 hm.
The length is 1500 hm, in hectameters.

Kilometers
A kilometer (km) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 0.6214 miles. One kilometer is one thousand meters.
The prefix "kilo-" means one thousand. A kilometer is defined by 1000 times the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 seconds. This definition may change, but a kilometer will always be one thousand meters.
Kilometers are used to measure distances on land in most countries. However, the United States and the United Kingdom still often use miles. The UK has adopted the metric system, but miles are still used on road signs.
Hectameters
A hectometer (hm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One hectometer is equivalent to 100 meters or approximately 328.084 feet.
The hectometer is defined as one hundred meters, providing a measurement for larger distances that are not as extensive as kilometers.
Hectometers are used in various fields, including land measurement and environmental science, to describe distances and areas on a scale larger than meters but smaller than kilometers.
