Convert kilometers to millimeters with this simple formula:

millimeters = kilometers × 1,000,000

Converting a kilometer length measurement to a millimeter measurement involves multiplying the length by the conversion ratio to find the result. One kilometer is equal to 1,000,000 millimeters, so to convert simply multiply by 1,000,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5 kilometers to millimeters using the formula above.

5 km = (5 × 1,000,000) = 5,000,000 mm

Millimeter is spelled millimetre internationally, and it is equal in length to .1 centimeters, 1000 micrometers, or ⁵/₁₂₇ inch. They are represented by the smallest ticks on most metric rulers. To get a reference point of the size, the thickness of a dime is 1.35mm.

To get an idea of how small a millimeter is, a dime is 1.35mm thick.

We recommend using a ruler or tape measure for measuring length, which can be found at a local retailer or home center. Rulers are available in imperial, metric, or combination with both values, so make sure you get the correct type for your needs. If you need a ruler you can also download and print our free printable rulers which include both imperial and metric measurements.
