How to Convert megaparsec to kilometer
1 megaparsec [Mpc] = 30856775812799590000 kilometer [km]
1 kilometer [km] = 3.240779289E-20 megaparsec [Mpc]
we use cross multiplication method
megaparsec [Mpc] → kilometer [km]
1 → 30856775812799590000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*30856775812799590000=1*x
by simplifying
x=46285163719199380000
