Well, usually what I do, when converting simple forms like these, that are in the same set. (meters) Compare CM to Meters 1 CM = 0.01 M Compare KM to M 1 KM = 1000 M So we notice that they are 5 decimals off Since, we are converting to Kilometers, we will go 5 decimals back, so instead of 86000 we go | making it, 0.86 pretty simple ;3

100cm=1m and 1000m=1km thus 100000cm=1km if 100000cm=1km then what would 86000cm be? just divide 86000 by 100000 this gives you the answer in metres
