convert 16 cm to km.
type your numeric answer and submit

Explanation:

Step1: Recall conversion factors

1 km = 1000 m and 1 m = 100 cm, so 1 km=1000×100 cm = 100000 cm.

Step2: Set up conversion equation

Let \(x\) be the length in km. We have the proportion \(\frac{x}{16}=\frac{1}{100000}\), so \(x=\frac{16}{100000}\).

Step3: Calculate the result

\(x = 0.00016\) km.

Answer:

0.00016
