How many kilometers (km) are in a nanometer (nm)? What is the formula for how to convert kilometers to nanometers (km to nm)?

1 kilometer (km) = 1,000,000,000,000 nanometers (nm)
So we can say that there is 1,000,000,000,000 nanometers in 1 kilometer.
This means that the multiplication conversion factor to convert a quantity expressed in a kilometer unit of measurement to an equivalent quantity expressed in a nanometer unit of measurement is 1,000,000,000,000.

Inversely (or reciprocally),

1 nanometer (nm) = 0.000000000001 kilometer (km)
So we can say that there is 0.000000000001 kilometer in 1 nanometer.
This means that the division conversion factor to convert a quantity expressed in a kilometer unit of measurement to an equivalent quantity expressed in a nanometer unit of measurement is 0.000000000001.

Knowing this inverse mathematical relationship between the two conversion factors and their reciprocal operations, we can derive two formulas to calculate and convert a quantity of length expressed in kilometers to an equivalent quantity of length expressed in nanometers (km to nm). Both formulas will yield the same result. The formulas are:

nm = km × 1,000,000,000,000    → This is the formula based on the multiplication conversion factor.

and

nm = km ÷ 0.000000000001    → This is the formula based on the division conversion factor.

For example, if you have a length of 2 kilometers that you want to convert to nanometers, you would use either of the two formulas as follows:

nm = 2 km × 1,000,000,000,000 = 2,000,000,000,000 nm
nm = 2 km ÷ 0.000000000001 = 2,000,000,000,000 nm

So, the result is the same using either formula, which is 2,000,000,000,000 nanometers.
