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

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.
