Explanation:

The tallest building in the world, The Burj Khalifa in Dubai is 0.828 kilometers high.

We have to convert this unit to centimeters.

As we know 1 km = 1000 meters

1 meter = 100 centimeters

Therefore, 1000 meter = 1000 × 100 = 100,000 centimeters.

0.828 km = 0.828 × 100,000 = 82,800 centimeters.

The height of the Burj Khalifa is 82,800 centimeters.
