Solution Steps

To convert hectometers (hm) to kilometers (km), we need to understand the relationship between these units. Since 1 hectometer is equal to 0.1 kilometers, we can convert the given measurement by multiplying the number of hectometers by 0.1.

Step 1: Understanding the Conversion

To convert from hectometers (hm) to kilometers (km), we use the conversion factor: \[ 1 \, \text{hm} = 0.1 \, \text{km} \]

Step 2: Applying the Conversion

Given the measurement of \(36 \, \text{hm}\), we can calculate the equivalent in kilometers using the formula: \[ \text{kilometers} = \text{hectometers} \times 0.1 \] Substituting the given value: \[ \text{kilometers} = 36 \times 0.1 = 3.6 \]

Step 3: Rounding the Result

The result \(3.6\) is already expressed to four decimal places as \(3.6000\).

Final Answer

\(\boxed{3.6}\)
