When you need to convert kilometre to millimetre

Length conversions come up constantly in DIY, travel and online shopping — sizing furniture, reading a height in a different system, or checking a screen or fabric measurement listed in unfamiliar units.

Typical values: 0.5 km is about 500000 mm, and 5 km works out to roughly 5e+06 mm. Because the ratio is fixed at 1e+06, you can scale any amount linearly — doubling the kilometres doubles the millimetres.

Metric and imperial length units coexist worldwide, so the same object is often quoted two ways depending on the country.
