Rods to Kilometers
Convert rods (rd) to kilometers (km) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.
rd
km
1 rd = 0.005029 km
Full precision:0.0050292 km
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 rods to kilometers, we divide by 198.839 because one kilometer equals exactly 198.839 rods.
1 kilometer = 198.839 rods
Since there are 198.839 rods in every kilometer, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 198.839 = 0.005029 kilometers
So 1 rods = 0.005029 kilometers.
Quick check: 0.005029 × 198.839 = 1 rods
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 rd = 0.005029 km
1 ÷ 198.839 = 0.005029
1 ÷ 198.839 = 0.005029
Example 2: 5 rd = 0.025146 km
5 ÷ 198.839 = 0.025146
5 ÷ 198.839 = 0.025146
Example 3: 10 rd = 0.050292 km
10 ÷ 198.839 = 0.050292
10 ÷ 198.839 = 0.050292
