How to convert hectometers to light years
1 hectometer is equal to 1.057000834 × 10⁻¹⁴ light years, and 1 light year is equal to 94,607,304,730,000 hectometers. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
light years = hectometers × 1.057000834 × 10⁻¹⁴
light years = hectometers ÷ 94,607,304,730,000Example: convert 1 hm to ly: 1 × 1.057000834 × 10⁻¹⁴ = 1.057000834 × 10⁻¹⁴ ly.

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.

About the light year
A light-year is the distance light travels in a vacuum in one Julian year (365.25 days): about 9.46 trillion km. The nearest star system, Alpha Centauri, is about 4.37 light-years away.
