How to Convert kilometer to kiloparsec
1 kilometer [km] = 3.240779289E-17 kiloparsec [kpc]
1 kiloparsec [kpc] = 30856775812799584 kilometer [km]
we use cross multiplication method
kilometer [km] → kiloparsec [kpc]
1 → 3.240779289E-17
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*3.240779289E-17=1*x
by simplifying
x=4.861168934E-17
