kilometer to parsec
Please provide values below to convert kilometer [km] to parsec [pc], or change ↔.
kilometer [km]
Definition: A kilometer is a unit of length equal to 1,000 meters.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the meter, the kilometer was introduced in the late 18th century as part of the metric system.
CurrentUse: It is commonly used to measure long distances, such as between cities.
funfact: The prefix 'kilo-' comes from the Greek word 'khilioi,' meaning 'thousand.'
parsec [pc]
Definition: A parsec is a unit of length used in astronomy, equal to about 3.26 light years.
Historyandorigin: The term 'parsec' comes from 'parallax of one arcsecond.'
CurrentUse: It is used in astronomy to measure the distances to stars.
funfact: One parsec is approximately 3.26 light years.

How to Convert kilometer to parsec
1 kilometer [km] = 3.240779289E-14 parsec [pc]
1 parsec [pc] = 30856775812800 kilometer [km]
we use cross multiplication method
kilometer [km] → parsec [pc]
1 → 3.240779289E-14
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*3.240779289E-14=1*x
by simplifying
x=4.861168934E-14
