597 km = ? cm?

There are 1000 m in a km, and 100 cm in a m. So...there are 100000 cm in a km, or every km = 100000 cm. there are 1000mm in a m, or every m is 1000mm, so multiply by 1000. If the unit gets smaller, the number should get larger, and vice versa....

Doing the math, you will be able to figure out which print size most closely matches your sensors rectangular ratio. Obviously the matching paper s...
