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 Inches.
Answer
Given:
Length in Kilometers = 400 km
Converting Length from Kilometers to Inches...
The formula to convert from Kilometers to Inches is:
Length(Inches) = Length(Kilometers) / 0.0000254
Substitute given Length(Kilometers) = 400 in the above formula.
Length(Inches) = 400 / 0.0000254
Length(Inches) = 15748031.4961
Therefore, 400 km is equal to 15748031.4961 in.
2
Consider that a private helicopter has a flight range of 150 kilometers. Convert this range from kilometers to Inches.
Answer
Given:
Length in Kilometers = 150 km
Converting Length from Kilometers to Inches...
The formula to convert from Kilometers to Inches is:
Length(Inches) = Length(Kilometers) / 0.0000254
Substitute given Length(Kilometers) = 150 in the above formula.
Length(Inches) = 150 / 0.0000254
Length(Inches) = 5905511.811
Therefore, 150 km is equal to 5905511.811 in.

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.
Inches
An inch (symbol: in) is a unit of length used mainly in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. One inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters.
The inch has origins in ancient times, originally based on the width of a human thumb. Its current definition, established in 1959, is exactly 2.54 centimeters.
Inches are commonly used to measure smaller lengths and distances, such as screen sizes and fabric lengths. Despite the widespread adoption of the metric system, the inch remains in use in these countries.
