Conversion Definitions

The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between meters per hour and kilometers per hour.

What is meters per hour (m/h)?

Meters per hour is a unit of Speed or Velocity in the Metric System. It measures the number of meters traveled in an hour. The symbol for meters per hour is m/h and the International spelling for this unit is metres per hour. There are 1,000 m/h in km/h.

What is kilometers per hour (km/h)?

Kilometers per hour is a unit of Speed or Velocity in the Metric System. It measures the number of kilometers traveled in an hour. The symbol for kilometers per hour is km/h and the International spelling for this unit is kilometres per hour. There are 0.001 km/h in m/h.

Conversion Formula

Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.

The formula to convert from m/h to km/h is:

km/h = m/h ÷ 1,000

Conversion Example

Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from meters per hour to kilometers per hour (m/h to km/h).

Meters per hour to Kilometers per hour Conversion Example

Task: Convert 250 meters per hour to kilometers per hour (show work)

Formula:
m/h ÷ 1,000 = km/h

Calculations:
250 m/h ÷ 1,000 = 0.25 km/h

Result:
250 m/h is equal to 0.25 km/h
