Please provide values below to convert megaparsec [Mpc] to kiloparsec [kpc], or change ↔.
megaparsec [Mpc]
Definition: A megaparsec is a unit of length equal to one million parsecs.
Historyandorigin: It is used in astronomy to describe extremely large distances.
CurrentUse: It is used in cosmology to measure the distances between galaxies and galaxy clusters.
funfact: The prefix 'mega-' comes from the Greek word 'megas,' meaning 'great.'
kiloparsec [kpc]
Definition: A kiloparsec is a unit of length equal to one thousand parsecs.
Historyandorigin: It is used in astronomy to describe large distances.
CurrentUse: It is used in astronomy to measure the distances within galaxies.
funfact: The prefix 'kilo-' comes from the Greek word 'khilioi,' meaning 'thousand.'

How to Convert megaparsec to kiloparsec
1 megaparsec [Mpc] = 1000 kiloparsec [kpc]
1 kiloparsec [kpc] = 0.001 megaparsec [Mpc]
we use cross multiplication method
megaparsec [Mpc] → kiloparsec [kpc]
1 → 1000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1000=1*x
by simplifying
x=1500
