Python Program – Convert Kilometers to Miles

Python Program – Convert Kilometers to Miles

To convert Kilometers to Miles in Python, you can use the following formula in the program.

Miles = Kilometers * 0.621371

Let us write a function, that takes the Kilometers value as argument, computes the Miles using the above formula, and returns the result.

def kilometersToMiles(km):
    return km * 0.621371

You may use this function, in your program, to convert Kilometers to Miles.

The following is an example program, where we shall use the above conversion function, and convert 10 Kilometers to Miles and print the result to output.

Python Program

# Function that converts Kilometers to Miles
def kilometersToMiles(km):
    return km * 0.621371

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Given Kilometers
    km = 10

    # Convert Kilometers to Miles
    miles = kilometersToMiles(km)

    print(f"{km} Kilometers is equal to {miles} Miles")

Output

10 Kilometers is equal to 6.21371 Miles

To implement the formula, we used Python Multiplication from Arithmetic Operators.
