How to Convert Miles to Meters

To convert a measurement in miles to a measurement in meters, multiply the length by the following conversion ratio: 1,609.344 meters/mile.

Since one mile is equal to 1,609.344 meters, you can use this simple formula to convert:

meters = miles × 1,609.344

The length in meters is equal to the length in miles multiplied by 1,609.344.

For example, here's how to convert 5 miles to meters using the formula above.

meters = (5 mi × 1,609.344) = 8,046.72 m

How Many Meters Are in a Mile?

There are 1,609.344 meters in a mile, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
