How to convert gigameters to hectometers
1 gigameter is equal to 10,000,000 hectometers, and 1 hectometer is equal to 1 × 10⁻⁷ gigameters. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
hectometers = gigameters × 10,000,000
hectometers = gigameters ÷ 1 × 10⁻⁷Example: convert 1 Gm to hm: 1 × 10,000,000 = 10,000,000 hm.

About the gigameter
A gigameter is one billion meters. The Moon orbits about 0.38 Gm from Earth, and the Sun's diameter is about 1.39 Gm.
Symbol: Gm · 1 Gm = 1,000,000,000 m · Category: Metric (SI)
About the hectometer
A hectometer is 100 meters. It's rarely used on its own, but a square hectometer is the hectare, the common unit of land area.
