Tables of conversion factors Legend Legend This page provides you how to convert between meters and light year with conversion factor. In the above example the 0.3048 metre per foot is precise by definition, but the precision of the answer is determined by the precision of the 6 ft figure and in many cases the result would need rounding perhaps to 1.8 m.

Appropriate rounding of results is normally performed after conversion.

The process of making a conversion cannot produce a more precise result than the original quoted figure. Therefore, multiplication by this factor does not change the measured quantity, only its units. This works because the numerator and denominator describe the same quantity, the factor is equivalent to the number 1. You can also convert link to meter, exameter, petameter, terameter, gigameter, megameter, kilometer. This leaves only metres, the desired result. 5 li 0.010058399999795 hm / Convert link to hectometer. From below one foot is exactly 0.3048 metre. lar System, parsec (pc) or light-year (ly) is commonly used, where 1 parsec is a distance that corresponds to a parallax angle of 1 arcsecond (cf. 3.2 General commercial sources of convertersĬarrying units through a mathematical operation is sometimes performed.Į.g.
