Please provide values below to convert hectometer [hm] to gigameter [Gm], or change ↔.
hectometer [hm]
Definition: A hectometer is a unit of length equal to 100 meters.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the metric system, introduced in the late 18th century.
CurrentUse: It is less commonly used but can be found in some scientific contexts.
funfact: The prefix 'hecto-' comes from the Greek word 'hekaton,' meaning 'hundred.'
gigameter [Gm]
Definition: A gigameter is a unit of length equal to 1 billion meters.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the metric system, introduced in the late 20th century.
CurrentUse: It is used in theoretical physics and cosmology to describe very large distances.
funfact: The prefix 'giga-' comes from the Greek word 'gigas,' meaning 'giant,' as it represents (10^{9}).

How to Convert hectometer to gigameter
1 hectometer [hm] = 1.E-7 gigameter [Gm]
1 gigameter [Gm] = 10000000 hectometer [hm]
we use cross multiplication method
hectometer [hm] → gigameter [Gm]
1 → 1.E-7
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.E-7=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5E-7
